Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
For a cantilever beam of length L with a point load P at the free end, derive the expressions for shear and moment across the beam.
💡 Hint: Consider the beam's supports and how it resists moment and shear.
Analyze a beam fixed at both ends with varying distributed loads and derive the shear and moment equations.
💡 Hint: Focus on breaking the beam down into segments to analyze the effects.
