Lecture

Structural Mechanics Fundamentals

Description

This lecture covers the fundamentals of structural mechanics, focusing on equilibrium in 2D, boundary conditions, free-body diagrams, and constraints. The instructor explains the concept of static determinacy and the calculation of support reactions. Examples and calculations are provided to illustrate the principles discussed.
