A fixed-end beam AB of a length L is subjected to a uniform load of intensity q acting over the middle region of the beam (sec figure). Obtain a formula for the fixed-end moments MAand MBin terms of the load q, the length L, and the length h of the loaded part of the beam. Plot a graph of the fixed-end moment MAversus the length b of the loaded part of the beam. For convenience, plot the graph in the following nondimensional form: MAqL2/l2versusbL with the ratio b/L varying between its extreme values of 0 and 1. (c) For the special case in which ù = h = L/3, draw the shear-force and bending-moment diagrams for the beam, labeling all critical ordinates.
-4-4 A cantilever beam is supported at B by cable BC. The beam carries a uniform load q = 200 N/M. If the length of the beam is L = 3 m, find the force in the cable and the reactions at A. Ignore the axial flexibility of the cable.
A fixed-end beam AB supports a uniform load of intensity q = 75 lb/ft acting over part of the span. Assume that EI = 300kip-ft2. Calculate the reactions at A and B. Find the maximum displacement and its location. Repeat part (a) if the distributed load is applied from A to B.
A beam ABCD with a vertical arm CE is supported as a simple beam al A and D (see figure part a). A cable passes over a small pulley that is attached to the arm at E. One end of the cable is attached to the beam at point B. (a) What is the force P in the cable if the bending moment in the beam just lo the left of point C is equal numerically to 640 lb-ft?

Cantilever beam AB carries an upward uniform load of intensity q1from x = 0 to L/2 (see Fig. a) and a downward uniform load of intensity q from x = L/2 to L. Find q1in terms of q if the resulting moment at A is zero. Draw V and M diagrams for the case of both q and qtas applied loadings. Repeat part (a) for the case of an upward triangularly distributed load with peak intensity q0(see Fig. b). For part (b), find q0, instead of q1
A temporary wood flume serving as a channel for irrigation water is shown in the figure. The vertical boards forming the sides of the flume are sunk in the ground, which provides a fixed support. The top of the flume is held by tic rods that are tightened so that there is no deflection of the boards at that point. Thus, the vertical boards may be modeled as a beam AB, supported and loaded as shown in the last part of the figure. Assuming that the thickness t of the boards is 1,5 in., the depth d of the water is 40 in., and the height h to the tie rods is 50 in., what is the maximum bending stress in the boards? Hint: The numerically largest bending moment occurs at the fixed support.
Beam ABC is supported by a tie rod CD as shown. Two configurations are possible: pin support at A and downward triangular load on AB or pin at B and upward load on AB. Which has the larger maximum moment? First, find all support reactions; then plot axial force (N), shear (V), and moment (M) diagrams for ABC only and label all critical N, V, and M values. Label the distance to points where any critical ordinates are zero.
Segments AB and BCD of beam ABCD are pin connected at x = 10 ft. The beam is supported by a pin support at A and roller supports at C and D; the roller at D is rotated by 30* from the x axis (see figure). A trapezoidal distributed load on BC varies in intensity from 5 lb/ft at B to 2.5 lb/ft at C. A concentrated moment is applied at joint A, and a 40-lb inclined load is applied at the mid-span or CD. (a) Find reactions at supports A, C, and D. (b) Find the resultant force in the pin connection at B. (c) Repeat parts (a) and (b) if a rotational spring(kr= 50 ft-lb/radian ) is added at A and the roller at C is removed.
A plane Frame is restrained at joints A and D, as shown in the figure. Members AB and BCD are pin connected at B. A triangularly distributed lateral load with peak intensity of SO N/m acts on CD. An inclined concentrated force of 200 N acts at the mid-span of BC. (a) Find reactions at supports A and D. (b) Find resultant forces in the pins at B and C.
A compound beam (see figure) has an shear release just to the left of C and a moment release just to the right of C. A plot of the moment diagram is provided below the beam for applied load P at B and triangular distributed loads v(x) on segments Z/C and CD. First, solve for reactions using statics; then plot axial force (A) and shear force (K) diagrams. Confirm that the moment diagram is that shown below. Label all critical N, V, and M values and also the distance to points where N, V, and/or M are zero.
Beam ABC is fixed at support A and rests (at point B) upon the midpoint of beam DE (see part a of the figure). Thus, beam, ABC may be represented as a propped cantilever beam with an overhang BC and a linearly elastic support of stiffness k at point B (see part b of the figure). The distance from A to B is L = 10 ft, the distance from B to C is L/2 = 5 ft, and the length of beam DE is L = 10 ft. Both beams have the same flexural rigidity EI. A concentrated load P = 1700 lb acts at t lie free end of beam ABC. Determine the reactions RA, RB+ and MAfor beam ABC. Also, draw the shear-force and bending-moment diagrams for beam ABC, labeling all critical ordinates.
A beam ABCD with a vertical arm CE is supported as a simple beam at .1 and D (see figure). A cable passes over a small pulley that is attached to the arm at E. One end of the cable is attached to the beam at point B. The tensile force in the cable is 1800 lb. Draw the shear-Force and bending-moment diagrams for beam A BCD. Note: Disregard the widths of the beam and vertical arm and use centerline dimensions when making calculations. Repeat part (a) if a roller support is added at C and a shear release is inserted just left of C (see figure part b).
