Solved Problems

Problem: A simply supported beam of length $L = 6$ m carries a uniformly distributed load of $w = 20$ kN/m. Draw the Shear and Moment Diagrams and determine the maximum values.

Problem: A cantilever beam of length 4 m is fixed at the left end (A) and carries a point load $P = 10$ kN at the free end (B).

Problem: A beam with supports at A and B (6 m apart) has an overhang BC of 2 m. It carries a uniform load of 10 kN/m over the entire length (8 m).

Problem: A simply supported beam of length $L = 6 \text{ m}$ carries a triangular load distribution starting from $w = 0$ at the left support (A) to a maximum of $w = 30 \text{ kN/m}$ at the right support (B). Determine the maximum bending moment in the beam.
