SF & BM Problems
6.7 A cantilever of length 4m carries a gradually varying load, zero at the free end and 2 kN/m at
the fixed end. Draw the SF & BM diagram of the cantilever.
6.8 A simply supported beam of length 6m, carries point loads of 3kN and 6kN at distances of 2m
and 4m from the left end. Draw the shear force and bending moment diagram of the beam.
6.9 Draw the shear force and bending moment diagram of a simply supported beam of length 9m
carrying an uniformly distributed load of 10 kN/m for a distance of 6m from the left end. Also calculate
the maximum bending moment on the section.
6.10 Draw the SF & BM diagram of a simply
supported beam of length 8m carrying a uniformly
distributed load of 10kN/m for a distance of 4m
as shown in fig.
6.11 Draw the SF & BM diagram of a
simply supported beam of length 7m carrying an
uniformly distributed load as shown in fig.
6.18 A horizontal beam 10m long is carrying an udl of 10kN/m. The beam is supported on two
supports 6m apart. Find the position of the supports so that the BM on the beam is as small as possible.
Also draw the SF & BM diagrams.
