Question: Problem 2 . Given the indeterminate beam below, determine the most possible plastic hinge locations subject to the concentrated loads ( Q )

Problem 2.
Given the indeterminate beam below, determine the most possible plastic hinge locations subject to the concentrated loads \( Q \). Then determine the ultimate \( Q_{p}\) when the hinges are formed leading to the collapse. Note that the first load is 1.5 times of the other one.
