Q3. A beam ABC is supported by a vertical member CD as shown in Figure 3.A is pin support and C and D are pin connections (also called moment release). The loading are shown in the figure. The distance from A to B is L, distance from B to C is 0.5L, distance from C to D is 0.5L. A distributed load is applied from A to B, with intensity of 0 at A and intensity of q0 at B. A concentrated load is applied at middle of CD member. An external moment (couple) of 2PL is applied at C, where P=q0L.
(a) Draw the shear force diagram (SFD) of the structure ABCD with the sign labels and pertinent values. Note that positive shear is along the clockwise direction. Note that SFD of all components need to be plotted.

(b) Draw the bending moment diagram (BDM) of the structure ABCD with pertinent values. Noe that bending moment should be drawn on the tensile side. Note that BMD of all components need to be plotted.
