What is Mechanics?
• Mechanics is the branch of science which describes
and predicts the conditions of rest or motion of
bodies under the action of forces.
• Categories of Mechanics:
- Rigid bodies
- Statics
- Dynamics
- Deformable bodies
- Fluids

Axial Force and Normal
Force Examples
2P, P and 4P are axial forces and also normal forces.

Shear Force
Shear forces act parallel to the plane as shown in the Figure.

Shear Force Examples
1- 20
Bending Moment
The bending moment is caused by the external loads that tend to bend
the body about an axis lying within the plane of the area.

Sectioning of a Member
Axial forces acting on a member result in only normal stresses on a plane
cut perpendicular to the member axis.
Cutting plane
= applied force

Sectioning of a Member
= applied force
(a) Corresponding internal forces act in the plane
of section C and are called shearing forces.
= resistive force
L
The resultant of the internal shear force
distribution is defined as the shear of the
(b): FBD section and is equal to the load P.
