A simply supported beam of 4 m span carries a point load of 10kN at its centre. Find the reactions at the supports.

A simply supported beam of 4 m span carries a point load of 10kN at its centre. Find the reactions at the supports.

Solution:

The load applied symmetrical.

Hence 

RA = RB = Total load/2

                = 10 / 2

                =5kn
