This writing aims, from a bibliographic review, to constitute a theoretical contribution that makes possible the understanding of the Force concept as a vector quantity, from the field and the conceptual relationships that constitute it. In order to do so, we considered as material for analysis the force definitions presented in book chapters of the basic bibliography of the Physics I and General Mechanics I disciplines of a Civil Engineering Course. The theoretical foundation that supports this writing is the Historical-Cultural Theory. The methodological approach used is the Discursive Textual Analysis of Moraes and Galiazzi (2016), from which we constitute the units of meaning, categories and propositions. From the analyzes carried out, we concluded that the approach given to the force concept is strongly related to a vector quantity and the intuitive notions of pushing or pulling.
