What will I learn?
This Simple Machines Course equips you with quick, hands-on skills to confidently design and assess levers, pulleys, and block-and-tackle systems. You'll go over key concepts in statics, torque, friction, work, and energy, then use them in precise calculations, realistic safety margins, and straightforward examples. Master creating secure setups, picking the right materials, factoring in efficiency drops, and drafting simple operating and maintenance guides.
