UNIT – I

Simple Stresses and Strains : Elasticity and plasticity – Types of stresses and strains – Hooke’s law – stress – strain diagram for mild steel – Working stress – Factor of safety – Lateral strain, Poisson’s ratio and volumetric strain – Elastic modulii and the relationship between them – Bars of varying section – composite bars – Temperature stresses. Elastic constants.
Strain Energy – Resilience – Gradual, sudden, impact and shock loadings – simple applications.

UNIT – II

Shear Force and Bending Moment : Definition of beam – Types of beams – Concept of shear force and bending moment – S.F and B.M diagrams for cantilver, simply supported and overhanging beams subjected to point loads, uniformly distributed load, uniformly varying loads and combination of these loads – Point of contraflexure – Relation between S.F., B.M and rate of loading at a section of a beam.

UNIT – III
