Course Objectives	To introduce students to the fundamental aspects of stress analysis and enables them to understand internal forces and moments and their relation to the internal stresses and strains within simple elements under the influence of simple loading configurations.
Course Learning Outcomes	The students who succeeded in this course; Students will be able to calculate stress and deformation in members under axial load and torsion. Students will be able to use the principles of equilibrium of forces and moments to calculate stress in members under bending. Students will be able to calculate deformations in beams under bending.
Course Content	Concepts of normal and shear stress, strain, axial load, statically indeterminate axially loaded members, torsion, statically indeterminate torque-loaded members, bending of beams, combined loadings, stress and strain transformation, simple loading tension, torsion and bending, deflections with simple loadings, superposition techniques.
