Mechanics and
Graphics

Course Objectives:
The course is aimed
1. To develop the capacity to predict the effects of force and motion and to acquaint the concept
of static and dynamic equilibrium.
2. Ability to visualise physical configurations in terms of actual systems and its constraints, and
able to formulate the mathematical function of the system.
3. To study, analyse and formulate the motion of moving particles/bodies.
4. To impart and inculcate proper understanding of the theory of projection.
5. To impart the knowledge of reading a drawing and to improve the visualisation skill.
6. To teach basic utility of computer aided drafting (CAD) tools.

Course Outcomes:
On successful completion of course learner/student will be able to
1. Illustrate the concept and M-Lab program of force, moment and apply for two dimensional
systems with the help of FBD.
2. Illustrate the concept and M-Lab program of concept of equilibrium in two- and three-
dimensional systems with the help of FBD.
3. Illustrate and M-Lab program of different types of motions and establish Kinematic relations
for a particle & rigid body.
2
 4. Analyse particles in motion using force-acceleration, work-energy and impulse momentum
principles.
5. Apply the basic principles of projections in reading, visualising and converting 3D view to
2D drawing and vice versa.
6. Create, Annotate, Edit and Plot drawings using basic AutoCAD commands and features.

ASSESSMENT:
I. Internal Assessment Test (Entirely on Engineering Mechanics):
Assessment consists of two class tests of 40 marks each. The first-class test is to be conducted
when approx. 40% syllabus is completed and second-class test when additional 35% syllabus is
completed. Duration of each test shall be 90 minutes.
II. End Semester Theory Examination (Entirely on Engineering Mechanics):
1. Question paper will comprise of a total 05 questions, each carrying 20 marks.
2. Total 03 questions need to be solved.
3. Question No: 01 will be compulsory and based on the entire syllabus (Module 1-4) where in
4 sub-questions of 5 marks each will be asked.
4. Remaining questions will be randomly selected from all the modules (Module 1-4).
5. Weightage of each module will be proportional to the number of respective lectures
mentioned in the syllabus.
