⚡ Mecademy AIENG정역학 · ch5 Problem Statement Plot the shear and moment diagrams for the beam loaded with both distributed and point loads. What are the values of the shear force and bending moment at ? Determine the maximum bending moment . Problem 5/125 (a) Support Reactions and Shear/Moment Diagrams ● Calculation Process 1. Present Final Formula: To find the support reactions at () and ( ), apply the equations of equilibrium: The total load from the distributed section is , acting at . 2. Substitute Values: 3. Calculation: Shear Diagram (): : : . At , . : : Moment Diagram (): x=6 m M max Ax=0Bx= 9 m M = ∑ A 0, F = ∑ y 0 F = w w⋅L = w 800 N/m⋅3 m= 2400 Nx=2+1.5=3.5 m M = ∑ A (2400)(3.5)+(1500)(7)−R (9)= B 0 F = ∑ y R + A R − B 2400−1500=0 9R = B 8400+10500=18900⟹R = B 2100 N R = A 3900−2100=1800 N V 0≤x<2 mV=1800 N 2≤x<5 mV(x)=1800−800(x−2)=3400−800x x=5V=−600 N 5≤x<7 mV=−600 N 7≤x<9 mV=−600−1500=−2100 N M (parabolic curve) 4. Result: Reactions are and . ● Final Conclusion: The shear diagram starts at , decreases linearly across the distributed load to , stays constant until the point load, then drops to . The moment diagram consists of linear segments and a parabolic arch reaching its peak within the distributed load region. (b) Shear Force and Bending Moment at ● Calculation Process 1. Present Final Formula: At , which is in the region : 2. Substitute Values: 3. Calculation: 4. Result: , . ● Final Conclusion: At , the shear force is and the bending moment is . (c) Maximum
