Q. simply supported beam ABC with suports at A and B, 6 m apart with an over hang of BC = 2m long carries a udl of the whole length. Draw SFD & BMD

SOLUTION: Total load = 20 * 8 = 160 kN To find the reactions Taking moments about A R{B} * 6 = (20 * 8) * 8/2 = 640 R{B} = 640/6 = 106.67kN R{A} = 160 – 106.67 = 53.33kN SFD (SHEAR FORCE DIAGRAM) F{A} = 53.33kN FB =just left ofB = – 66.67kN … Read more
