1. Draw the shear force and bending moment diagrams for the
cantilever beam shown below
5kN/m
50kN 20kN 10kN

DA

SfD = 10KN
SfC = 10 + 20 = 30KN
SfB = 30 + 50 = 80KN
SfA = 80 + 5(2) = 90KN

90KN

80KN

30KN

10KN

SFD

B.M at D = 0
B.M at C = (10 x 2) = 20 KN
B.M at B = (10 x 4) + (20 x 2) = 80KN
B.M at B = (10 x 4) + (20 x 2) = 80KN

2. Draw the SF and B, diagrams for the simply supported beam shown
below, and clearly mark the position of the maximum bending
moment and its value.

4kN
B

Moment about A =
6RB = (4 x 1) + ( 4 x 3) + (4x 5) = 36
RB = 6KN

 RA = 12 - 6 = 6KN
FA = 6KN
Fc = 6KN - 4KN = 2KN
FAD = 2KN
FAE = 2KN - 4KN = -2KN
FF = -2KN - 4KN = -6KN
A 6kN

B 2KN

E
-2KN

F
-6KN

At a
B.M = 0
At C
B.M = (6 x 1) = +6KN
At D
B.M = (6 x 2) - (1 x 4) = +8KN
At E
B.M = (6 x 4) - (4 x 3) -(4 x 1) = +8KN
At F
B.M = (6 x 5) - ( 4 x 4) - (4 x 2) = +6KN
At
B.M = (6 x 6) - (4 x 5) - (4 x 3) - (4 x 1) = 0KN

TO FIND MAX B.M

Where S.F = 0
Between D
and E
s.f = 6 - 4 -2x = 0
2x =
2 x= 1

Max B.M in between D and E at x = 1
B.M = (6 x 3) - (4 x 2) - (2 x 0.5) = 9KN
