 INTRODUCTION (Cont)
Mechanics of materials is a study of the
relationship between the external loads
on a body and the internal stresses
within that body.
This subject also involves the
deformations and stability of a body when
subjected to external forces.

External Loads
External Forces
Internal (Resultant) Forces
Stress (function of member shape and loading)
Strain (function of material properties, member
shape and loading)
Deflection (function of material properties, member
shape and loading)
Stability (failure)

External Forces
1. Surface forces - caused by direct contact of other bodys
surface (point, line, area)
2. Body forces - other body exerts a force without contact
(gravity)

 Equilibrium of Deformable Body
Equation of Equilibrium
Equilibrium of a body requires a balance of forces and a
balance of moments

For a body with x, y, z coordinate system with origin O,

Best way to account for these forces is to draw the bodys

free-body diagram (FBD).
 Equilibrium of Deformable Body
Internal Resultant Loadings (Forces)
To obtain the internal loadings acting on a specific region within the
body, it Is necessary to pass an imaginary section or cut through the
region where the internal loading are to be determined.

Use Free Body Diagram (FBD) and equilibrium equations to determine

the internal force and moment acting within the body

Point O is usually chosen at the centroid of the sectioned area.

Coplanar Loadings (Two dimensions)
In general, there four different types of resultant loadings as defined
below:

Normal force N, shear force V and bending moment M can be

determined by:
 Procedure for Analysis
The resultant internal loadings at a point located on the section of a
body can be obtained using the method of sections. This requires the
following steps
