This course introduces engineers and architects to the principles involved in designing typical components such as drive shafts, floor beams, pressure tanks, and bolted connections found in machines or structures. The content of this course covers stress, strain, mechanical properties of materials, axial loading, torsion, bending, deflection, and column stability with the emphasis on the basic concepts and real-world applications. This course includes a multiple-choice quiz at the end, which is designed to enhance the understanding of course materials.
