Question: P 1 . For the beam with supports as given below, draw influence lines for ( a ) the vertical reaction at B , (

P1. For the beam with supports as given below, draw influence lines for (a) the vertical reaction at B,(b) the shear at C, and (c) the moment at C.
P2. For the same beam given in P1, show that the magnitude of the influence lines for (a),(b), and (c) match the corresponding reactions or internal forces you would get at these points if a unit load was applied at E(i.e., if a unit load is applied at E, what is the corresponding vertical reaction at B, shear at C, and moment at C? Do these values match the magnitude of your influence lines at E?)
P3. For the same beam given in P1,(a) where should a single concentrated force and a uniformly distributed load be applied to produce the maximum positive reaction at B, positive maximum shear at C, and positive maximum moment at C?(b) if the concentrated force has a magnitude of 5 kips , and the uniformly distributed load has a magnitude of 500lbfft, what would be the resulting maximum positive reaction at B, positive maximum shear at C, and positive maximum moment at C ?
