elines of action of these resultants. This is illustrated in the following Example.—Find the centroid of the plate shown inFig. 165. APPLICATIONS TO STRUCTURES 131 Divide the plate into rectangles. The weight of eachrectangle is proportional to its area; thus the weights ofthe rectangles can be… … FiG. 165 sent them by ef, }g, and gh; their resultant is now eh.Therefore the centroid of the plate is at C, the intersec-tion of the lines of action of the resultants.
