Course Objectives:
- To study the engineering properties of the materials and solids and analyze the same to evaluate the stress -strain behaviour.
- To analyze the internal forces for the statistically determinate and compound beams having internal hinges with different types of loading.
- To understand the concept and behaviour of flexural members (beams) in flexure and shear, solid circular shaft for torsion, thin shells for internal stresses.
- To introduce the concept of strain energy for axial, flexure, shear and torsion.
- To study the behaviour of axially loaded columns and struts using different theories available for the analysis with various end conditions.
Module I

Theory examination:
- The question paper will comprise of six questions; each carrying 20 marks.
- The first question will be compulsory and will have short questions having weightage of 4-5 marks covering the entire syllabus.
- The remaining five questions will be based on all the modules of the entire syllabus and may be. For this, the modules shall be divided proportionately and further, the weightage of the marks shall be judiciously awarded in proportion to the importance of the sub-module and contents thereof.
- There can be an internal choice in various questions/ sub-questions in order to accommodate the questions on all the topics/ sub-topics.
- The students will have to attempt any three questions out of remaining five questions.
- Total four questions need to be attempted.
Oral Examination:
The oral examination shall be based on the entire syllabus and the report of the experiments/ practicals conducted by the students including assignments.
List of Practicals:
- Tension test on mild steel bars (stress-strain behavior, Youngs modulus determination)
- Tests on Tor Steel (Tension, bend and re-bend)
- Transverse Test on cast iron.
- Shear Test on mild steel, cast iron, and brass.

Term Work:
The term-work shall comprise of the neatly written report of the assignments. The assignments shall be given covering the entire syllabus in such a way that the students would attempt at least four problems on each modules/ sub-modules contents thereof further. Distribution of Term-work Marks: The marks of term-work shall be judiciously awarded depending upon the quality of the term work including that of the report on experiments assignments. The final certification acceptance of term-work warrants the satisfactory the appropriate completion of the assignments the minimum passing marks to be obtained by the students. Broadly, the split of the marks for term work shall be as given below. However, there can be further bifurcation in the marks under any of the heads to account for any sub-head therein\. Report of the Experiments : 10 marks Assignments : 10 marks Attendance : 05 marks Total : 25 Marks Further, while giving weightage of marks on the attendance, following guidelines shall be resorted to. 75% – 80%: 03 Marks; 81% – 90%: 04 Marks; 91% onwards: 05 Marks
