The Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) exam is given semiannually by the National
Council of Engineering Examiners (NCEE) and is one of the requirements for
obtaining a Professional Engineering License. A portion of this exam contains problems
in statics, and this appendix provides a review of the subject matter most often asked
on this exam. Before solving any of the problems, you should review the sections
indicated in each chapter in order to become familiar with the boldfaced definitions and
the procedures used to solve the various types of problems. Also, review the example
problems in these sections.
The following problems are arranged in the same sequence as the topics in each
chapter. Besides helping as a preparation for the FE exam, these problems also provide
additional examples for general practice of the subject matter. Solutions to all the
problems are given at the back of this appendix.
