Engineering Mechanics Statics - Volume 1 (7th Edition)

Engineering Mechanics: Statics — Volume 1 (7th Edition) By J.L. Meriam and L.G. Kraige

The companion volume to Meriam and Kraige's Dynamics, carrying forward the same decades-long tradition of accuracy, rigor, and clarity that has made this series a benchmark text in engineering mechanics. It contains a vast collection of interesting and instructive problems, with more than half the homework problems in this seventh edition newly written, reflecting several decades of investment by the authors in refining how the subject is taught. Faculty and students alike benefit from that accumulated experience — the text is built to develop genuine problem-solving skill rather than rote procedure, using engaging, engineering-design-relevant problems throughout, and following international SI unit conventions carefully (correct unit designation, number grouping, and prefix usage) to build good technical habits alongside the mechanics itself.

Topics commonly covered include:

• Introduction to statics (fundamental concepts and principles)

• Force systems (two- and three-dimensional)

• Equilibrium of particles and rigid bodies

• Structures (trusses, frames, and machines)

• Distributed forces (centroids, centers of mass, moments of inertia)

• Friction

• Virtual work

Key features:

• Over 50% newly written homework problems in this edition

• Careful, consistent application of SI unit conventions throughout

• Vast, varied problem sets connecting theory to real engineering design

• Companion Study Guide available for additional practice and review

• Decades-long reputation for accuracy, clarity, and rigor across successive editions

Perfect for:

• Mechanical, civil, and aerospace engineering students taking their first statics course

• Students building foundational force-analysis and equilibrium skills

• Students preparing for the FE exam's statics content

• Faculty teaching a rigorous, application-driven introductory statics course
