Structures / Materials SectionPage 1 CIVL 1101 --Civil Engineering Structures and IntroductionMechanics of Materials is a branch of applied mechanics that deals with the behavior ofsolid bodies subjected to various types of loading. This field of study is known by severalnames, including Strength of Materials and mechanics of deformable bodies. The solidbodies considered in this book include axially loaded members, shafts in torsion, thin shells,beams, and columns, as well as Structures that are assemblies of these components. Usuallythe objectives of our analysis will be the determination of the stresses, strains, and deflectionsproduced by the loads.
