Question: The compound beam below has an shear release just to the left of C and a moment release just to the right of C. A

The compound beam below has an shear release just to the left of C and a moment release just to the right of C. A plot of the moment diagram is provided below for applied load P at B and triangular distributed loads w(x) on segments BC and CD.
First, solve for reactions using statics, then plot axial force (N) and shear (V) diagrams. Confirm that the moment diagram is that shown below. Label all critical N and V & M values and also the distance to points where N, V &/or M is zero.
