Publisher's Synopsis
This second edition of Engineering Mechanics (Statics) with SI conversion is based on the original 9th US edition. The main purpose of the book is to provide a clear and thorough presentation of the principles and applications of engineering mechanics. *Many photographs are used to show how principles of engineering mechanics are applied in the real-world, and in some instances, these photos further enhance example problems and aid in the understanding of the theory presented. *The artwork in the book has been enhanced to provide a realistic and clearer picture of the material. Motion of particles and rigid bodies is depicted. *Problem sets have been revised so that both design and analysis problems can be selected according to varying degrees of difficulty. *A new Appendix C has been added to provide practice for solving problems for the Fundamentals in Engineering exam with partial solutions and answers given to all these problems.
