Study Notes
Properties Considered in Strength of Materials
- Chemical properties are NOT considered in the field of strength of materials.
Structural Members Analyzed
- Beams, columns, and other long, slender structural members are typically analyzed in the field of strength of materials.
Development of Strength of Materials Theory
- Initially, only one dimension (1D) was considered in the development of the theory of strength of materials.
Methods in Strength of Materials
- The term "mechanics of materials" is commonly used to refer to the methods employed in predicting the response of a structure under loading in the field of strength of materials.
Factors Considered in Strength of Materials
- Apart from material properties, other factors considered in the field of strength of materials include external loads, support conditions, and geometry of the structure.
