Let us consider the frame shown in Figure 1. for which the horizontal beam has a length of 10 m.

1. Determine the reactions at the supports A and B of the frame for x = 3 m.

2. Draw the shear and moment diagrams for x = 3 m.

3. Determine the position and magnitude of the maximum shear force and bending moment on the horizontal beam for different values of x between 0 and 3 m. Discuss the results.
