1. Solve loads acting on rigid bodies in equilibrium in 2D and 3D systems.
(C3, P4)
2. Solve problems involving geometrical properties of figures and actions of
LO distributed forces. (C3)
3. Analyse problems involving friction in mechanical systems. (C4)
4. Analyse problems involving rigid bodies in equilibrium using the virtual
