Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A simply supported beam with a uniform load experiences how internal forces change from end to end. Describe the shear force and bending moment diagrams.

💡 Hint: Think about how loads are distributed.

Question 2

For a cantilever beam loaded at the free end, calculate the shear force and bending moment at a point. Use specific distances from the fixed support.

💡 Hint: Consider equilibrium and the effects of the load along the length.
