Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
A structure has three beams each supported by cantilevers and they are loaded differently. Calculate the resultant load on the central beam if each side carries a different load of 1.2 k/ft and 2 k/ft on the left and right respectively.
💡 Hint: Add up the loads acting on the central beam.
Question 2
If the maximum moment at a simply supported beam is 1000 k.ft, what would the corresponding shear at the beam ends near support? Consider symmetric loading.
💡 Hint: Think about the relationship between load, moment, and shear.
