Review for the Fundamentals of Engineering Examination

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.
