QUESTIONS

1. A horizontal cantilever 6 m long beam carries a point load of 2 kN at the free end and an UDL of 1 kN/m over a length of 4 m, from the free end. Draw the shear force and bending moment diagrams.
2. A cantilever carries loads of 2 kN and 4 kN at 2 m and 6 m, respectively from the fixed end and an UDL of 10 kN/m over its entire length. Draw the shear force and bending moment diagrams.
3. A beam ABC is 12 m long is simply supported at B and C. AB = 3 m and BC = 9 m. It carries a point load of 25 kN at the free end A and UDL of 21 kN/m throughout the entire span. Draw shear force and bending moment diagrams marking all the salient values.
4. An overhanging beam ABC is simply supported at A and B over a span of 8 m and BC overhangs by 4 m. If the ...
