INTRODUCTION
Good day future ENGINEER!
In this module, you will learn on how to interpret the relationship among load, shear and moment and calculate
the internal forces produced by different types of loads
And also, you will learn how to draw the shear and moment diagram using shear and moment equation and
using area method.
If you are ready, let’s start.
Lesson
Shear and Moment in Beams
1
LESSON PROPER
The term beam refers to a slender bar that carries transverse loading; that is, the applied force are
perpendicular to the bar.
In a beam, the internal force system consist of a shear force and a bending moment acting on the cross
section of the bar. The shear force and the bending moment usually vary continuously along the length of the
beam.
The internal forces give rise to two kinds of stresses on a transverse section of a beam: (1) normal stress
that is caused by bending moment and (2) shear stress due to the shear force.
Knowing the distribution of the shear force and the bending moment in a beam is essential for the
computation of stresses and deformations. Which will be investigated in subsequent chapters.
1.2 Supports and Loads
Beams are classified according to their supports. A simply supported beam, shown in Fig. 4.1 (a). The
pin support prevents displacement of the end of the beams, but not its rotation. The term roller support
refers to a pin connection that is free to move parallel to the axis of the beam; this type of support suppresses
only the transverse displacement.
A cantilever beam is built into a rigid support at one end, with the other end being free, as shown in
Fig.4.1(b). The built-in support prevents displacements as well as rotations of the end of the beam.
An overhanging beam, illustrated in Fig.4.1(c), is supported by a pin and a roller support, with one or
both ends of the beam extending beyond the supports.
The three types of beams are statically determinate because the support reactions can be found from
the equilibrium equations.
A concentrated load, such as P in Fig. 4.1(a). In contrast a distributed load is applied over a finite
area. If the distributed load acts on a very narrow area, the load may be approximated by a line load.
The intensity w of this loading is expressed as force per unit length (lb/ft, N/m, etc.) The load distribution
may be uniform, as shown in Fig.4.1(b), or it may vary with distance along the beam, as in Fig.4.1(c).
The weight of the beam is an example of distributed loading, but its magnitude is usually small compared
to the loads applied to the beam.
Figure 4.2 shows other types of beams. These beams are oversupported in the sense that each beam has at least
one more reaction than is necessary for support. Such beams are statically indeterminate; the presence of these
redundant supports requires the use of additional equations obtained by considering the deformation of the
beam. The analysis of statically indeterminate beams will be discussed in next lesson.
To derive the expressions for V and M in terms of the distance x measured along the beam. By plotting
these expressions to scale, obtain the shear force and bending moment diagrams for the beam.
The shear force and bending moment diagrams are convenient visual references to the internal forces in
a beam; in particular, they identify the maximum values of V and M.

MECHANICS OF DEFORMABLE [DATE]
BODIES
1. The simply supported beam in Fig. (a) carries two concentrated loads. (1) Derive the expressions for the
shear force and the bending moment for each segment of the beam. (2) Sketch the shear force and
bending moment diagrams. Neglect the weight of the beam. Note that the support reactions at A and D
have been computed and are shown in Fig. (a).
Solution
Part 1
The determination of the expressions for V and M for each of the three beam segments (AB,BC, and CD)
is explained below.
Segment AB (0<x<2 m)
Segment BC (2<x<5 m)
ΣFy =0 +↑
18-14-V = 0
V = +18-14 = +4 kN Answer
ΣME =0+(c-clockwise)
-18x+14(x-2)+M=0
M = +18x-14(x-2) = 4x+28 kN· m Answer
Segment CD (5 m<x<7 m)
ΣFy =0 +↑
18-14—28-V = 0
V = +18-14-28 = -24 kN Answer
ΣMG = 0 + (c-clockwise)
- 18x+ 14(x-2)+28(x-5)+M = 0
M = +18x-14(x-2) – (x-5)
= -24x+168 kN· m Answer
PART 2
The V-diagram reveals that the largest shear force in the beam is -24 kN : segment CD
The M-diagram reveals that the maximum bending moment is +48 kN·m : the 28-kN load at C.
Note that at each concentrated force the V- diagram “jumps” by an amount equal to the force.
There is a discontinuity in the slope of the M-diagram at each concentrated force.
Sample problem 2
The simply supported beam in Fig. (a) is loaded by the clockwise couple C0 at B. (1) Derive the shear and
bending moment equations. And (2) draw the shear force and bending moment diagrams. Neglect the weight
of the beam. The support reactions A and C have been computed, and their values are shown in Fig. (a).
Solution
Part 1
Due to the presence of the couple C0, We must analyze segments AB and BC separately.
Sample problem 3

Practice Problem
Sample Problem 4.4
The simply supported beam in Fig. (a) supports 30-kN concentrated force at B and a 40-kN•m
couple at D. Sketch the shear force and beading moment diagrams by the area method. Neglect the
weight of the beam.
Solution
Load Diagram
The load diagram for the beam is shown in Fig. (b). The reactions at A and E are found from
equilibrium analysis. Indicating its sign as established by the sign conventions in Fig. 4.3.

Assessment
This part is a graded assessment, I will assess if you have learned the whole module. Use ballpoint to
write your answer. Write your answer in a separate piece of paper and show your solution. Copy the questions
then answer. After you answer, send it to me via Google Classroom in a PDF file. As much as possible, try to
avoid erasure.
