⚡ Mecademy AIENG정역학 · ch5 Problem Statement Repeat Prob. 5/125, where the 1500-N load has been replaced by the 4.2-kN·m couple. (Prob. 5/125: 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 .) [Note: Referring to Problem 5/125 on the previous page, the beam is supported by a pin at () and a roller at (). It is subjected to a uniform distributed load of between and . For Prob. 5/126, the point load at is replaced by a clockwise couple of .] Problem 5/126 (a) Support Reactions and Shear/Moment Diagrams 1. Formula: 2. Substitution: Equivalent concentrated load of distributed load: at . Applied clockwise couple at : . 3. Calculation: Shear Diagram: : : ; At , .
