PRACTICAL APPLICATION:
This course is the first Engineering oriented course in the first semester. The course will make
the foundation of critical and analytical Engineering knowledge of Civil Engineering students.
The very first step in every design or analysis problem of Civil Engineering, forces and
geometrical properties are first things to tackle. ThereforeTherefore, engineering mechanics
creates ability in students to analyse or design the structures by calculation of loads and
properties of structural elements.
