providing instructions that are current in content and state-of-the art in delivery;
engaging in cutting-edge research; and
responding to the big local and global technological challenges of the times
MISSION
a) The mission of Mapúa Institute of Technology is to disseminate, generate, preserve and apply scientific, engineering,
architectural and IT knowledge.
b) The Institute shall, using the most effective means, provide its students with professional and advanced scientific and
engineering, architectural and information technology education through rigorous and up-to-date academic programs with
ample opportunities for the exercise of creativity and the experience of discovery.
c) It shall implement curricula that, while being steeped in technologies, shall also be rich in the humanities, languages and
social sciences that will inculcate ethics.
d) The Institute shall advance and preserve knowledge by undertaking research and reporting on the results of such inquiries.
e) The Institute, singly or in collaboration with others, shall bring to bear the world's vast store of knowledge in science,
engineering and other realms on the problems of the industry and the community in order to make the Philippines and the
world a better place.
MISSION
PROGRAM EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES
a b c d e
1. Provide students with the necessary technical competence for their immediate entry
into the various professional careers by developing in them a broad foundation in
major technical areas of civil engineering such as construction, geotechnical,
structural, transportation, and water resources engineering.
2. Develop the desire to pursue continuing education, advance study and research that
will ensure continued awareness of current and new approaches in civil engineering.
3. Instill the importance of professional responsibility and the value of maintaining ethical
standards in the practice of civil engineering.
4. Develop the ability to communicate effectively using various means such oral, written
and electronic, within the technical community and general public.
5. Prepare our students to become responsible citizens and to foster in them the concern
for the conservation and protection of the environment.
COURSE SYLLABUS
3. Pre-requisite: PHY11/11L
4. Co-requisite: NONE
5. Credit/Class schedule: 3 Meetings per week @ 1.5 hours per meeting; 4.5 hrs per week
6. Course Description:
The course covers the branch of engineering mechanics known as statics which deals with the forces acting on
non-moving bodies. The course is in preparation for a higher level of analysis of assemblies and structures. It covers
concurrent and non-concurrent forces, operation with the free body concept, equilibrium of coplanar and non-coplanar
force system, analysis of trusses, friction force in space, centroids and moments of inertia.
