This course on Mechanics I: Statics aims to teach students the fundamentals of statics, including concepts like scalars, vectors, equilibrium of particles, moments, and shear and moment diagrams. Students will learn how to analyze and solve static equilibrium problems using methods like the method of joints and sections. The course also covers topics such as friction, center of gravity, centroid, and moments of inertia. The teaching method includes lecture videos, examples, and study guides. This course is intended for students studying mechanical engineering or related fields who want to build a strong foundation in statics.
