Question: Consider the beam shown in ( Figure 1 ) . Take P = 4 kip and w = 1 . 1 kip / ft .

Consider the beam shown in (Figure 1). Take P
=4 kip
and w
=1.1 kip/ft
. Point E
is just to the right of the 4-kip
load. Follow the sign convention.
Figure1 of 1
A compound horizontal beam 'A' B C has two sections connected by a pin at point B. The left end at 'A' of the left member 'A' B is supported by a roller on a horizontal surface. The right end at C of the right member B C is fixed to a vertical wall. Point E is marked at the midpoint of B C,4 feet from its ends. Point D is marked at the middle of 'A' B,6 feet from its ends. A force P acts vertically downward at point E. A distributed loading is applied down over the member 'A' B increasing linearly from 0 at point 'A' to w at point B.
