A cylinder of radius r = 1 m with a uniformly distributed mass m = 5 t lies on the ledges of the masonry (Fig.). The distance from one wall to the vertical passing through the center of the cross section of the cylinder is a = 0.50 m, from the other wall to the same vertical is b = 0.87 m. Find the pressure forces of the cylinder on the masonry ledges.
