Question: Take wmax = 2 5 kN / m . Assume the support reactions at A and B are vertical. ( Figure 1 ) Figure 1

Take wmax
=25 kN/m
. Assume the support reactions at A
and B
are vertical. (Figure 1)
Figure1 of 1
A horizontal beam rests on short vertical supports at its left end 'A' and right end B. Both supports are mounted on the same horizontal surface. Point C is marked on the beam 3 meters to the right of end 'A'. Point D is marked on the beam 1.5 meters to the right of point C and 1.5 meters to the left of end B. A vertical downward load of 60 kilonewtons is applied to the beam at point D. A vertically downward distributed load acts on the beam from end 'A' to point D. The distributed load linearly decreases from w subscript max at end 'A' to zero at D.
