Question:

The compound beam shown in the figure consists of a cantilever beam AB (length L) that is pin-connected to a simple beam BD (length 2L). After the beam is constructed, a clearance c exists between the beam and a support at C, midway between points B and D. Subsequently, a uniform load is placed along the entire length of the beam. What intensity q of the load is needed to close the gap at C and bring the beam into contact with the support?
