Static Equilibrium Modeling

This lecture covers the modeling of static equilibrium using nodes, forces, and bars, where forces are defined by intensity, application point, action type, action line, and direction. It explains the equilibrium of bars in tension and compression, the force diagram, unit measurements, force correspondence, and Bow's notation. The lecture also discusses the equilibrium of networks, force polygons, clockwise sequence, force identification in bars, and the roles of models in verifying static equilibrium. Case studies illustrate the feasibility and adjustment of static equilibrium in structures, emphasizing force distribution and internal force adjustments.
