Statics Fundamentals

Description This set of equipment covers the needs of students studying forces, moments, beams and more. Students use the storable work panel (included) to construct a range of experiments, which allow you to study a full course in static engineering systems. A full 10-hour workbook is included free of charge in the Learning Centre for this kit. Learning objectives / experiments: • Forces (mass, force, weight, combining, parallelogram, triangle and polygon • Centre of gravity • Units of weight and mass • Free body diagrams • Force vectors • Coplanar forces • Bow’s notation • Principles of moments and moment of forces • Distinguishing between moments and torque Statics Fundamentals This set of equipment covers the needs of students studying forces, moments, beams and more.
