Calculate the shear stress in a body. Calculate the axial stress in a body. Calculate the bearing stress between two bodies. Calculate the moment that a force creates around a specified point. Read a stress-strain diagram. Look up material properties such as ultimate strength, elastic strength, and modulus of elasticity. Use Method of Joints to solve for the force in truss members. Use Method of Sections to solve for the force in truss members. Use summation of moments to solve for external reactions. Find zero-force members in a truss.
