this studycontribute to the ongoing efforts in engineering education innovation and provide students withthe tools they need to excel in complex 3D problem-solving scenarios.BackgroundCourses in engineering mechanics, such as Statics, Mechanics of Materials, and Dynamics,typically form a fundamental component of engineering education. They lay the groundwork forvarious subsequent courses across diverse engineering disciplines, including aerospace, civil,construction, and mechanical engineering. A solid grasp of engineering mechanics is essentialfor students, as it facilitates their understanding of later courses, such as Structural Analysis,Machine Design, and other specific courses in each field of engineering. Statics, in particular,can be
