This book, a comprehensive introduction to elementary statics, is designed with beginners in mind, and requires no prior knowledge of mathematics beyond first-year algebra. Exploring the foundational principles of statics, this book is valuable for students of many disciplines including architecture, engineering, physics, and more. Within these pages, the author offers a step-by-step guide to topics such as the concept of force, triangle and polygon of forces, the resolution of forces, and the equilibrium of any number of forces acting at a given point. Through the examination of how forces are combined to produce equilibrium, the author introduces an understanding of a force's magnitude, direction, and line of action. By explaining how to resolve a given force into two or more forces acting in specific directions, this book provides a solid foundation for further studies into statics and its relation to mechanics.
