of the beam and a uniform load of 40 kN/m, distributed
uniformly at a distance of 3m from A. a clockwise couple of
120 kN.m is applied 1m to the left of B.

a. Compute the maximum shear.


b. Compute the maximum moment.

left side. (Note: Point of inflection is the location on
the beam where the bending moment is zero) a. Determine the reaction at A.
b. Determine the maximum positive moment of the
2. A beam 8.5 m long is fixed at the left end and supported beam. (Note: positive moment is bending moment
by a roller at a point 1.5 m from the right end. There is an that causes the beam to concave upward)
internal hinge at a point 2.5 m from the fixed end. The beam c. Determine the maximum negative moment. (Note:
is loaded by a clockwise couple equal to 50 kN.m at a point positive moment is bending moment that causes
1m to the right of fixed end and a concentrated load equal the beam to concave downward)
