Statics and Mechanics of Material

This document appears to be a chapter from a textbook about equilibrium of rigid bodies. It includes 3 example problems about determining forces and components of force in situations involving beams, arms holding weights, and ramps on ships. The problems involve calculating reactions, tensions, forces and force components based on given weight distributions and dimensions.
