moment and centroid of curve and area Centroid of composite plane figures Theorems of Pappus guldinus
Second moments of plane figures and composite sections Transfer theorems Polar moment of area
Product of inertia and principal axes. Moment of inertia of a rigid body M I of a lamina M.I of 3 dimensional bodies (cylinder, circular rod, sphere)

Module III: (17 hours)
Introduction to structural mechanics Different types of supports, loads and beams Reactions at supports. Shear force and Bending moment in beams - Shear force and Bending moment diagrams for cantilever and simply supported beams (only for concentrated and uniformly distributed load cases). Plane trusses Types
