A simply supported beam is loaded as shown in Fig. P8.24. Using singularity functions, the shear along the beam can be expressed by the equation:
By definition, the singularity function can be expressed as follows:
Use a numerical method to find the point(s) where the shear equals zero.

- When a beam section is subjected to a shear load, a shear stress distribution is developed on the section. The distribution of the shear stress is not linear. Elasticity theory can be used to calculate the shear stress at any point. However, a simpler method can be used to calculate the average shear stress across the width of the section, a distance y above or below the neutral axis. The average VQ shear stress is given by T = Here V is the shear It force on the section, I is the moment of inertia of the entire section about the neutral axis, and t is the width of the section at the distance y where the shear stress is being calculated. Q is the product of the area of the section above (or below) y and the distance from the neutral axis to the centroid of that area (Figure 1). In short, Q is the moment of the area about the neutral axis. I Figure 1 of 1 An I-beam has a flange width b = 250 mm, height h = 250 mm, web thickness tw = 9 mm, and flange thickness tf = 14 mm.
