Subject aims expressed by acquired skills and competences
The students study at subject "STATICS" the basic method of mechanics - Free body diagram. It means - knowledge of the basic types of joins, creating of the system of equalibrium equations for all types of force systems and applicaton of the basic types of the friction. For 2-D beam, the target of the STATICS is the course of the internal force.
