The Statics BookCourse

Problems

  1. Engineers and others need to understand how loads act on structures, how structures carry those loads, and how they respond.

Stakes

  1. Products can fail when loads are not properly understood or analyzed.
  2. Loads matter in a wide range of contexts: your knee joint, a computer keyboard, a bridge, a car, or an airplane.
  3. If you understand loads, you can design airplanes that fly, ships that stay upright, vehicles that withstand wind, and so on.
  4. Learning Statics lays the foundation for many advanced engineering courses and real-world applications.

Solution

By learning the fundamentals of Statics, you’ll be equipped to solve real-world problems involving loads. You’ll be able to estimate, design, model, calculate, and experiment — skills that are valuable in both study and practice.

Goals

The job of this BookCourse is to equip you to reach the following goals:

  1. Apply Statics to do useful things — estimate, make decisions, build models, do calculations, and more.
  2. Effectively solve more than 80% of the typical problems found in a Statics textbook.
  3. Know the main ideas of Statics well enough to explain them, apply them, remember them, and teach them.
