Apa itu Mekanika?

Cabang ilmu fisika yang berbicara tentang
keadaan diam atau geraknya benda-benda
yang mengalami kerja atau aksi gaya
Mechanics

Rigid Bodies
(Things that do not change shape)

Statics

Dynamics

Deformable Bodies
(Things that do change shape)

Fluids

Incompressible

Compressible

Mekanika Teknik adalah ilmu yang

mempelajari tentang besar dan semua
jenis gaya yang bekerja pada sebuah
struktur, dan bagaimana pula pengaruh
beban-beban tersebut pada kekuatan
strukturnya.

Secara umum Mekanika Teknik terbagi menjadi dua

macam, yaitu Statika yang mempelajari kondisi
struktur dalam kondisi diam/ stabil, dan Dinamika
bila kondisi strukturnya dalam keadaan bergerak.

Apa saja yang dipelajari?

Keseimbangan partikel
Keseimbangan benda tegar
Diagram gaya normal, diagram gaya
geser, dan diagram momen
Konsep tegangan
Momen inersia dan momen polar
Teori kegagalan statis

Apa perbedaan partikel dan benda tegar?

Particle: A very small amount of matter which
may be assumed to occupy a single point in
space.
Rigid body: A combination of a large number
of particles occupying fixed position with
respect to each other.

Apa perbedaan Partikel dan Benda Tegar ?

Partikel:
Mempunyai suatu
massa namun
ukurannya dapat
diabaikan, sehingga
geometri benda tidak
akan terlibat dalam
analisis masalah

Benda Tegar:
Kombinasi sejumlah
partikel yang mana
semua partikel
berada pada suatu
jarak tetap terhadap
satu dengan yang lain

THE WHAT, WHY AND HOW OF A

FREE BODY DIAGRAM (FBD)

Free Body Diagrams are one of the most important things for
you to know how to draw and use.
What ? - It is a drawing that shows
all external forces acting on the
particle.
Why ? - It helps you write the
equations of equilibrium used to
solve for the unknowns (usually
forces or angles).

How ?
1. Imagine the particle to be isolated or cut free from its
surroundings.
2. Show all the forces that act on the particle.
Active forces: They want to move the particle.
Reactive forces: They tend to resist the motion.
3. Identify each force and show all known magnitudes
and directions. Show all unknown magnitudes and /
or directions as variables .

Fundamental Principles
The parallelogram law for the addition of forces: Two
forces acting on a particle can be replaced by a single
force, called resultant, obtained by drawing the diagonal
of the parallelogram which has sides equal to the given
forces

f1+f2

f2
f1

Parallelogram Law

Fundamental Principles (cont)

The principle of transmissibility: A force acting at a point
of a rigid body can be replaced by a force of the the same
magnitude and same direction, but acting on at a different
point on the line of action

f2
f1
f1 and f2 are equivalent if their
magnitudes are the same and the
object is rigid.

APPLICATION OF VECTOR

concurrent cable forces
acting on the bracket.

ADDITION OF SEVERAL VECTORS

Step 1 is to resolve each force
into its components
Step 2 is to add all the x
components together and add all
the y components together. These
two totals become the resultant
vector.
Step 3 is to find the magnitude
and angle of the resultant vector.

Example of this
process,

You can also represent a 2-D vector with a

magnitude and angle.

EXAMPLE
Given: Three concurrent forces
acting on a bracket.
Find: The magnitude and
angle of the resultant
force.

Plan:
a) Resolve the forces in their x-y components.
b) Add the respective components to get the resultant vector.
c) Find magnitude and angle from the resultant components.

EXAMPLE (continued)

F1 = { 15 sin 40 i + 15 cos 40 j } kN
= { 9.642 i + 11.49 j } kN
F2 = { -(12/13)26 i + (5/13)26 j } kN
= { -24 i + 10 j } kN
F3 = { 36 cos 30 i 36 sin 30 j } kN
= { 31.18 i 18 j } kN

EXAMPLE (continued)
Summing up all the i and j components respectively, we get,
FR = { (9.642 24 + 31.18) i + (11.49 + 10 18) j } kN
= { 16.82 i + 3.49 j } kN
y

FR

FR = ((16.82)2 + (3.49)2)1/2 = 17.2 kN

= tan-1(3.49/16.82) = 11.7

Sample Problem
SOLUTION:
Resolve each force into rectangular
components.
Determine the components of the
resultant by adding the corresponding
force components.
Four forces act on bolt A as shown.
Determine the resultant of the force
on the bolt.

Calculate the magnitude and direction
