Question 1
Given a beam subject to a triangular load distribution, determine the shear and bending moment at the midpoint, identifying critical points.
💡 Hint: Remember to find points where shear changes sign to locate maximum bending moment.
Question 2
A cantilever beam is fixed at one end with various point loads applied. Analyze the bending moment diagram and find the maximum moment.
💡 Hint: Look for locations where loads directly influence the bending moment.
