Summary

Subject Fundamentals of Structural Mechanics for Architects will provide students with basic information about the static solution of statically and kinematically determined planar bearing structures from the point of view of an architect, which consists in calculating the reactions in external supports and determining the internal forces using equilibrium conditions. Part of the lessons is the analysis of the force systems in the plane and the space and the fundamentals of the kinematics, which are necessary to achieve the desired immobility of the supporting structure.
