Total 45 lectures

Short Attendance:
– If you miss more than 9 classes then, as per GIKI policy, you are not allowed to sit
in the final exam

– Statics is a core ME course and is only offered in Fall semester

– Failing this course will delay your graduation

– 9 leaves are not a privilege the everyone must avail

 How Failing Statics can Delay your Degree
1. Statics is a Pre-req. for Dynamics and Mechanics of Solids

2. Dynamics is a Pre-req. for Theory of Machines

3. Dynamics is a Pre-req. for Fluid Mechanics-1

4. Dynamics is a Pre-req. for Mechanical Vibration

5. Mechanics of Solids is a Pre-req. for Manufacturing Technology

6. Mechanics of Solids is a Pre-req. for Design of Machine Elements

7. Mechanics of Solids is a Pre-req. for Stress Analysis

8. Design of Machine Elements is Pre-req. for Mechanical Engineering

 How to Fail Statics
• Short attendance
• Missed lectures and scoring low in
assignments
• Messing up the mid term
• Scoring below 35%
 How to Pass Statics
• Revise each lecture on the same day.
• Practice problems without solution manual
• Never skip lectures
• Sleep well before the exam
