Questions and Answers

What is the significance of placing the concentrated load at the end of the overhang in the given problem?

  • It changes the type of load from point load to distributed load
  • It has no effect on the maximum shear at the mid span
  • It increases the maximum shear at the mid span (correct)
  • It reduces the maximum shear at the mid span

Which of the following is not a factor affecting the maximum shear at the mid span?

  • Length of the overhang
  • Location of the concentrated load
  • Material properties of the beam (correct)
  • Magnitude of the concentrated load

What is the primary reason for computing the maximum shear at the mid span?

  • To determine the moment at the support
  • To ensure the beam's structural integrity (correct)
  • To check the buckling load of the beam
  • To calculate the beam's deflection
