Goals	To learn the fundamental concepts of deforming deformable bodies, to have knowledge about the mechanical properties of the material and to gain the ability to design bar elements in simple strength states.
Course Content	Introduction, Basic Principles; Internal Forces and State of Stress; State of Strain; Kinematical Relations; Stress-Strain Relations (Hooke’s Law)/Strain Energy; Allowable Stresses; Fundamentals of Strength of Bars, Stress Resultants, Equivalence Relations; Axial Normal Force/Shear Force/Bending; Torsion.
Learning Outcomes	1) Students will gain to understand the behaviour of deformable bodies. 2) Students will be able to analyze the stress and strain distributions in elastic body. 3) Students will have knowledge of mechanical properties of materials
