Objectives and Contents
Objectives of the Course Unit	1. To provide the basic concepts and principles of strength of materials. 2. To give an ability to calculate stresses and deformations of objects under external loadings. 3. To give an ability to apply the knowledge of strength of materials on engineering applications and design problems.
Contents of the Course Unit	The course covers the following topics; stress and strain concepts, axial load, statically indeterminate axially loaded members, thermal stress, torsion, angle of twist, statically indeterminate torque-loaded members, bending, eccentric axial loading of beams, transverse shear, shear flow in build-up members, combined loadings, stress and strain transformation, deflection of beams and shafts, statically indeterminate beams and shafts.
Contribution of the Course Intending to Provide the Professional Education	Covers the relationship between stress and strain on deformable solids. Applies analysis to members subjected to axial, bending, and torsional loads. Covers combined stresses and properties of structural materials
