Study Notes

Beam Description

  • The beam is simply supported with a length of 10 m
  • The beam has an overhang of 2 m at the left support

Loads on the Beam

  • The beam carries a uniform load of 9.35 kN/m
  • The beam also carries a concentrated load of 116 kN

Compute the maximum shear at the mid span when a concentrated load is placed at the end of an overhang. This quiz tests your understanding of beam analysis and structural mechanics.
