Synopsis

"Volume 1, Statistics" covers the study of action of forces on structures and machines in equilibrium, and contains 71 sample problems and 843 unsolved problems from which a wide choice of assignments can be made. Of these problems over 50 percent are new with the balance selected from preceding editions. The major emphasis of "Engineering Mechanics" is on basic principles and methods rather than on a multitude of special cases, and an effort has been made to show both the cohesiveness of the relatively few fundamental ideas and the great variety of problems which these few ideas will solve.
