Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Given a beam fixed at one end and a point load at the free end, derive the equations for shear and moment across the length of the beam.

💡 Hint: Consider the effects of the fixed support and the load on the beam.

Question 2

For a beam with non-uniform loading, sketch the shear and moment diagrams. Include calculations for maximum shear and moment.

💡 Hint: Break the load into sections for easier calculation.
