Two people weighing W each are sitting on a plank of length$$L$$floating on water at$$L/4$$from either end. Neglecting the weight of the plank, th... For the simply supported beam of length$$L,$$subjected to a uniformly distributed moment$$(M)kN$$-$$m$$per unit length as shown in the figure... Match List-$${\rm I}$$(Shear Force Diagrams) beams with List-$${\rm II}$$(Diagram of beams with supports and loading) and select the correct answe... A simply supported beam$$AB$$has the bending moment diagram as shown in the following figure : The beam is possibly under the action of following... The bending Moment diagram for a beam is given below: The shear force at sections$$aa'$$and$$bb'$$respectively are of the magnitude ... A three-span continuous beam has an internal hinge at$$B.$$Section$$B$$is at the mid-span of$$A.C.$$Section$$E$$is at the mid-span of$$CG$$. ...
