Q. A simply supported beam of span 4 m carries a point load of 10 kN at a distance of 1 m from left hand support, Draw SFD. and B.MD.

Q. A simply supported beam of span 4 m carries a point load of 10 kN at a distance of 1 m from left hand support, Draw SFD. and B.MD. SOLUTION: First To find reactions As the load is unsymmetrical the reactions are not equal. The load applied is nearer to support A and hence … Read more

Q. A simply supported beam of 8 m long has a point load of 10 kN at its centre. Determine the reactions of supports and maximum bending moment.

Q. A simply supported beam of 8 m long has a point load of 10 kN at its centre. Determine the reactions of supports and maximum bending moment. SOLUTION: The loading given on the simply supported beam is symmetrica Hence R{A} = R{B} = 10/2 = 5kN BMD (BENDING MOMENT DIAGRAM ) M{A} = M{B} … Read more

Q. A simply supported beam of span 4 m carries a point load of 10 kN at its centre. Draw SFD and BMD. Find max Shear force and Вending moment 

Q. A simply supported beam of span 4 m carries a point load of 10 kN at its centre. Draw SFD and BMD. Find max Shear force and Вending moment  SOLUTION: First To find reactions As the load is symmetrical, the load shared by the two supports are equal. Hence R{A} = R{B} = 10/2 … Read more

Q. A simply supported beam of span 6m carries a central point load of 8 kN. Draw SFD and BMD

Q. A simply supported beam of span 6m carries a central point load of 8 kN. Draw SFD and BMD SOLUTION: As the beam is symmetrically loaded, hence RA =R B = Total load /2 = 8/2 = 4 kN SFD (SHEAR FORCE DIAGRAM) FA =4 kN(from A to C it is 4 kN) FC … Read more
