This is a webgem on shear force and bending moment for a beam. We have a beam consisting of three segments. A first segment from A to B, a second segment from B to C, and a third segment from C to D. The B-to-C segment is pinned at B and has a roller support at C.(Sometimes C is called a 'simple support.') The ends of the beam at A and D are fixed or 'built-in.' need to 'take it apart,' First the segment B-to-C is studied. That sets the stage to do 'theoretical cuts' at E and F. It is instructive to then use the other halves of the theoretical cuts to determine wall reactions at A and D. We finish with a full-system study to verify that our results are correct.
