The manual contains a presentation of theoretical material in the form of brief answers to questions on statics, submitted to the exam, examples and solutions of typical problems . After the presentation of the theoretical material, 5 tasks are given for the main sections of statics: the equilibrium of an arbitrary flat system of forces, the equilibrium of a system of bodies, the calculation of a farm, a spatial convergent system of forces and an arbitrary spatial system of forces. As a prototype, methodological instructions and control tasks on “Theoretical Mechanics” were selected, edited by C. M. Targa, Higher School Press, 1982. The manual is intended for independent work of students in the areas of training 23. 05. 01 "Land transport and technological means", 35. 03. 06 "Agroengineering", 23. 03. 03 "Exploitation of transport-technological machines and complexes", 13. 03. 02 "Electric Power Engineering and Electrical Engineering", 08. 04. 01 "Construction" of full-time and part-time forms of education .
