Wherever there is a point load we have to calculate the

values of shearing force on both the sides (left and right)
of that section.

Figure 52(b)
figure 52(b)
Throughout the span the bending moment is sagging in nature.
To determine the maximum bending moment for the beam we
use the relationship between shearing force and bending
moment which says that the rate of change of bending moment
(dM/dx) is equal to the shearing force (Fx) at the section.
For
maximum value of any function its first derivative should be
equal to zero. Therefore at the point of maximum bending
moment the shearing force must be equal to zero. From
the
shear force diagram it is clear that the shear force is zero
between A and C. The point of zero shearing force can be
easily determined by using the property of similar triangles.

Hence, 66/x = 14/(4x)

Which yields, x = 3.3m

Now calculate the bending moment at x = 3.3m which will be

the maximum bending moment for this beam. Therefore,
Mmax = 66 x 3.3 20 x (3.3) x (3.3/2) = 108.9 kNm
