Determine the internal normal force, shear force, and moment at point C in the simply supported beam. Point C is located just to the right of the 1500-lb –ft couple moment.

Determine the internal normal force, shear force, and moment at point C in the simply supported beam.

Draw the shear and moment diagrams for the simply supported beam.

7.3 Relations between distributed load, shear and moment

Distributed loading• Distributed loading is positive when the loading acts upward• The internal shear force and bending moment are assumed to act in the positive sense according to the established sign convention• Distributed loading has been replaced by a resultant force ΔF that acts at distance k Δx

7.3 Couple moment

Letting Δx→0

Moment equilibrium requires;

ΣM = 0 ; ΔM = Mo+

The ‘jump’ in the moment diagram isupward if Mo is clockwise.

ΔM is downward when Mo is counterclockwise.

7.4 Cables

7.4 Cables

• Flexible cables and chains combine strength with lightness• Assume cable is perfectly flexible and inextensible• The cable takes a form of several straight line segments• Use equations of equilibrium and geometry
