Engineering Mechanics | Coplanar Force Systems | Concurrent & Non-Concurrent Forces Real Structures

Описание: In this lecture, the 3rd of our Force Systems series, we explore coplanar force systems, focusing on both concurrent and non-concurrent cases.

📌 What we cover in this lecture:
✅ The definitions of concurrent and non-concurrent coplanar forces
✅ How to apply equilibrium conditions for each system
✅ How to construct and interpret free body diagrams
✅ How to use force polygons (triangles) for graphical solutions
✅ Real-world examples including Lords Cricket Ground, Munich Olympic Stadium, cable cars, and crawler cranes
✅ Step-by-step problem solving a beam and ladder

👷‍♀️ Delivered by Dr Margi Vilnay – Senior Lecturer in Structural Engineering, Chartered Engineer, and Senior Fellow of the Higher Education Academy.
