It is best course for civil engineering students to learn statics.
Course Overview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sdom7zBIfkE Statics is the most fundamental course in Mechanics. In this course, you will learn the conditions under which an object or a structure subjected to time-invariant (static) forces is in equilibrium - i.e. the conditions under which it remains stationary or moves with a constant velocity-. You will also learn how to calculate the reaction forces as well as the internal forces experienced throughout the structure so that later you can properly design and size the foundation and the members of the structure to assure the structure’s safety and serviceability. This course is suitable for learners with interest in different Engineering disciplines such as civil engineering, architecture, mechanical engineering, aerospace. Non engineering disciplines may also find the course very useful, from archaeologist who are concerned about the stability of their excavation sites to dentists interested in understanding the forces transmitted through dental bridges, to orthopedic surgeons concerned about the forces transmitted through the spine, or a hip or knee joint. The content will be primarily delivered using light board. Prof. Katafygiotis is going to write and sketch with color markers directly on the board while facing you. You will have an exciting and interactive learning experience online!

This course is a good course for both students and lecturers. ;)
MM
It was a good course, it would be great if you add several exercises to practice for the assessments

Course of content and teacher was perfect. Thank you for everything.
JR
Superb and Excellent Teaching by professor. Nicely explained. Easy to understand the concepts. Clearly explained the concepts.

The course was amazing. I have only compliments to give. I will be wishing Professor Lambros Katafygiotis to make more courses related to the structural area. His teaching is excellent!
SM
Awesome the way they teach the concept is great and I completely satisfied by taking this course thankyou.....
S
Thank you so much for the best course! I have had learned on this new course and it was great quality videos lecture.
JM
Very important Concepts and and in some way new way to present the material. I have enjoy all classes and of course learnt a lot. thanks to Lambros and Coursera!!
FK
THE COURSE WAS GOOD AND AT BEGINNER LEVEL IT IS WORTH.
MM
course was well worth the money! :) Thanks Professor

Dear Mr. Katafygiotis,
I appreciate the opportunity to enroll on this online course "Mastering Statics". This course helped me not to forget the basic topics of the mechanical of materials like statics. However, I would like you add a limore courses like mechanical of material, dynamics, etc. Furthermore, I would like to add to the course the topics of load on cables and Coulomb friction( slip and tip). In advance, I thank you for teaching provided and hope the next courses, please.
Best Wishes,
AIVZ
Thank you so much for the best course! I have had learned on this new course and it was great quality videos lecture.
wow!! just wow!!! best lectures on statics ever made. Thank you very much.
Content is overall great and the teacher explains everything well, the main concern I have is that some of the quizzes need corrections (simply are wrong) and very few of the content videos need minor tweaks. Either way, I think this course is solid and helps a lot

I strongly recommend this course for everyone who needs to understand statics specially civil engineers.
very educational
The name of this course "Mastering Statics" is coherent with its content. The lecture videos don't only focus on the advanced concepts but also helps us to grow from the very basics. And there is the suitability of its name. I've really learned a lot from this course. Hoping to get more such courses for the students from Civil Engineering background on Coursera. Thanks.
Instructor did a great job explaining new concepts while also touching on older ones. This man knows very well what he is doing and I am glad he is the instructor of the course. What I wish this course had was more practice problems, so please know that going into this you only have the quizzes to do to test your knowledge of the concepts.
This course helped me to learn most importantly how to analyze the stability of different structures using two main approaches and also it helped me gain so much knowledge about mechanical statics overall. so it is a great course that I would recommend to anyone interested in learning this topic.
Excellent course for civil/mechanical engineers. The course material is really good and the Professor explains the concepts really well! Assignments are challenging as well!
Overall, I would surely recommend Civil/mechanical graduates or undergraduates to certainly take up this course!

Curso muito bem feito, muito bem explicado e com bastante conteúdo, voltado para várias áreas, cumpriu o que prometeu!
It has helped me revise and recall what I learned in my undergraduate studies in civil engineering.
It was a good course, it would be great if you add several exercises to practice for the assessments
one of the best course on static.
thank you Prof. for your coordination in enhancing our knowledge.
Thank you very much Mr Katafygiotis for putting this course together! It was extremely helpful.
