Chapter 1- Static engineering systems
  1.1 Simply supported beams
   1.1.1   determination of shear force
   1.1.2   bending moment and stress due to bending
   1.1.3   radius of curvature in simply supported beams
           subjected to concentrated and uniformly
           distributed loads
   1.1.4   eccentric loading of columns
   1.1.5   stress distribution
   1.1.6   middle third rule
Types of columns
Depending on the mode of failure, columns can
be categorised in the following ways
 (a) a short column
     a column which will fail in true compression

 (b) a long column
    a column which buckles before full compressive strength is
    reached
Types of beams
• Beams can be classified according to the
  manner in which they supported
Loads
• Loads can be applied on the beams in one
  of the following ways
Sheer force and bending moments
• When a beam is loaded
  by forces or couples,
  internal stresses and
  strains  are    created.
  Consider a cantilever
  arrangement
• It is convenient to reduce
  the resultant to a shear
  force, V, and a bending
  moment, M.
Sign conventions




• Positive shear forces always deform right hand face downward with
  respect to the left hand face. Positive shear stress acts clockwise
  while negative shear stress acts counter-clockwise

• Positive bending moments always elongate the lower section of the
  beam. Positive moment compresses upper (sagging moments)
  whereas negative moment compresses lower (hogging moments)
Relationships for continuous loads
• Consider the following beam
  segment with a uniformly
  distributed load with load
  intensity    q.   Note   that
  distributed loads are positive
  when acting downward and
  negative when acting upward.

• Summing forces vertically

• Summing        moments     and
  discarding      products    of
  differentials because they are
  negligible compared to other
  terms
Relationships for concentrated loads
 •   consider the following beam segment
     with a concentrated load, P. Again,
     concentrated loads are positive when
     acting downward and negative when
     acting upward.

 •   Summing forces vertically


 •   An abrupt change occurs in the shear
     force at a point where a concentrated
     load acts. As one moves from left to right
     through a point of load application, the
     shear force decreases by an amount
     equal to the magnitude of the downward
     load.

 •   Summing the moments
Relationships for couples

Example
• Determine the shear force and bending moment at 1m and
  4m from the right hand end of the beam shown in the
  figure. Neglect the weight of the beam.



• A cantilever beam that is free at end A and fixed at end B
  is subjected to a distributed load of linearly varying
  intensity q. The maximum intensity of the load occurs at
  the fixed support and is equal to q0. Find the shear force V
  and bending moment M at distance x from the free end of
  the beam
