Question 1
A simply supported beam of length L experiences a distributed load varying linearly from 0 to w across its length. Calculate the shear force and bending moment at a distance 'x' from the clamped end.
💡 Hint: Consider the load's distribution when calculating reactions and internal diagrams.
Question 2
For an I-beam with varying flange widths, derive an expression for the shear stress at several locations and discuss the implications on structural integrity.
💡 Hint: Compare stress distributions at different points, particularly near flanges versus the web.
