Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A cantilever beam is fixed at one end and has a point load at the free end. Calculate the reactions at the support and the maximum bending moment.

💡 Hint: Remember the relationship between loads, reactions, and moments.

Question 2

Given a simply supported beam with a length of 10m subjected to a uniform load of 5kN/m, derive the shear and bending moment diagrams.

💡 Hint: Use equilibrium equations for reactions before sketching the diagrams.
