Question: Questions 4 - 8 For the beam and loading shown below, draw a free - body diagram ( FBD ) of the beam and solve

Questions 4-8
For the beam and loading shown below, draw a free-body diagram (FBD) of the beam and solve
for the reactions at points A and B. Then draw a shear and moment (V&M) diagram for the
beam. Use the beam bending sign-convention for V&M. Ignore the self-weight of the beam.
