Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Design a simply supported beam to support a total uniform load of 2 kN across its 4-meter span. Calculate the maximum bending moment and shear force.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Use the formulas for maximum bending moment and shear in uniformly loaded beams.

Question 2

A cantilever beam of length 3 meters is fixed at one end. If a point load of 600 N is applied at the free end, calculate the maximum bending moment at the fixed end.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Remember, the bending moment increases as we move from the free end to the fixed support.
