Introduction
For a rigid body in static equilibrium, the external forces and
moments are balanced and will impart no translational or rotational
motion to the body.
The necessary and sufficient condition for the static equilibrium of a
body are that the resultant force and couple from all external forces
form a system equivalent to zero,
F 0 M O r F 0
Resolving each force and moment into its rectangular components
leads to 6 scalar equations which also express the conditions for
static equilibrium,
Fx 0 F y 0 Fz 0
Mx 0 M y 0 Mz 0

Free-Body Diagram
First step in the static equilibrium analysis of a
rigid body is identification of all forces acting on
the body with a free-body diagram.
Select the extent of the free-body and detach it
from the ground and all other bodies.
Indicate point of application, magnitude, and
direction of external forces, including the rigid
body weight.
Indicate point of application and assumed
direction of unknown applied forces. These
usually consist of reactions through which the
ground and other bodies oppose the possible
motion of the rigid body.
Include the dimensions necessary to compute
the moments of the forces.
