Answer to Question #73194 in Physics for dharmik srivastav

Question

The beam from Figure QA4 has a double support at point “A” and a single

support at point “D”. It has a uniform distributed load of 10 kN/m applied in section “B–C”, a triangular distributed load in section “C-D” and an anti-clockwise moment of 20 kNm applied at point “B”.


(a) Calculate the reactions at the supports.

[5%] (b) Determine the Transverse Shear Force (SF) and the Bending Moment (BM) equations and plot the SF and BM diagrams for the beam of Figure QA4.
