EGNT 221 - Strengths and Materials

3 Credit(s).

Prepares technicians to design mechanical components and structures, predict failures, and understand physical properties of materials. The student is introduced to stress and strain relationships in deformable solids and analysis of axial members, shafts, beams, columns, and pressure vessels. Other topics include combined stresses, statically indetermined members, and properties of structural materials. Applied rather than theoretical, the course emphasizes problem solving. 2 lecture, 2 laboratory hours per week. Course offered once a year (fall or spring).
