Course Overview
This is a basic course in all Civil and Geotechnical Engineering Programs.
Sometimes it is called: Strength of Materials or Mechanics of Materials.
This course is an introduction to the analysis of deformable bodies like stress,
strain, stress-strain relations, torsion, beam bending and shearing stresses,
stress and strain transformations, beam deflections, statically indeterminate
problems, and column buckling.

Course Objectives
The objective of this course is that the student obtains the basis of Elasticity and the
Strength of Materials. In this way, the student will be able to pre-design different
types of elements, for mechanical components, civil engineering structures and
buildings. For this purpose, the solid model will be thought of as a continuum
material and the stress and strain fields will be computed based on this theory.
