COURSE DESCRIPTIONS
MTPR 2108 (Strength of Materials)
This course is an introduction to the analysis of stresses in load
bearing structural members. Concepts of stress, strain and
elasticity are applied to elementary systems of normal, shear and
bending stress in order to give students an understanding of one
of the fundamental building blocks upon which all engineering
designs are based.
Basic Stress Systems; Strain and Elasticity; Mechanical
Properties of Materials; Shear Force and Bending Moments;
Stress due to Bending; Torsional Shearing Stress; Statically
Indeterminate Systems
Prerequisite - MATH 1101 (Introduction to Calculus);
MECH2110 (Mechanics)
Duration - 13 weeks total, excluding final examination
Lectures - 3 hours/week = 39 hours total
Laboratories - 1 hour/ week = 13 hours total
MTPR 2208 (Materials and Processes)
The purpose of this course is to provide students with the
knowledge of the behaviour and characteristics of common
engineering materials and give them an understanding of
basic industrial processes. This will enable students to select
suitable materials and fabrication methods for the design and
manufacture of parts to ensure successful service.
Production of Steel and other Metals; Identification of Metals;
Physical and Mechanical Properties of Metals; Structure of Metals;
Phase Diagrams; Heat Treating; Inspection and Testing of
Materials; Corrosion; Plastics; Adhesives, Ceramics, and Composites
Prerequisites - CHEM 1200 (Chemistry);
WKPR 2115 (Mechanical Workshop)
Duration - 13 weeks
Lectures - 3 hours per week
Laboratories - 2 hours per week
MTPR 3100 (Strength of Materials)
This second Strength of Materials course expands on previously
studied concepts of simple stress, strain and elasticity, and provides
a basis for elementary calculations in engineering design.

MTPR 3201 (Strength of Materials)
This advanced course in Strength of Materials extends on the
application of fundamental principles presented in Strength of
Materials 2100 and Strength of Materials 3100. This course is
intended to familiarize students with elements of structural design
and machine component design often observed aboard ships.

NARC 1103 (Ships and Shipping)
This is a first level course designed to introduce the basic
elements of ship design. Ships’ missions are related to vessel
dimensions, general layout, hull form, structure and stability
characteristics. Emphasis is placed on the interpretation of ships’
drawings including the lines plan, general arrangement and
profile and decks.
