Review Statics Part B
This was a very interesting course, more challenging then most of the other review courses I have taken from SunCam. Statics was always one of my favorite courses in college (Univ of Wisconsin-Madison BSME 1982), and this was a great review of trig and mathematics. Great references to pulleys, cables as well as trusses. Don't hesitate to take this course ... this is a very fair 4 credit hour option for PE renewal ... and you learn a few tricks as well. I recommend this course to any ME for PE renewal.
