Throughout the wide fields of engineering, the most fundamental requirement is a sound knowledge of the first principles of mechanics coupled with an intimate understanding of the properties of materials. More problems arise from weaknesses in mechanical design than from any other cause, impressing upon us the necessity of being well versed in the basic principles of mechanical engineering.
