Question 1

What does a shear force diagram represent?

  • Intensity of a point load
  • Variation of shear force along the beam
  • Bending moment in the beam

💡 Hint: Remember how forces change due to loads.

Question 2

True or False: Contraflexure points are locations where the bending moment is maximum.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Think about where the beam curves change.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A beam of length 8 m is subjected to a point load of 10 kN at its center. Calculate the shear force and bending moment at 2 m from the left end.

💡 Hint: Use equilibrium equations to assess shear and moment.

Question 2

For a beam with a uniformly varying load ranging from 0 to 10 kN/m over 5 m, calculate the maximum bending moment and the shear force at mid span.

💡 Hint: Consider an equivalent point load for the load distribution.
