Bending Moment Along a Beam In this chapter, we will learn how to find the bending moment M along the beam. M is not necessarily constant; sometimes M is a function of x. We will also solve for the shear force V(x), which will be used in Chapter 6. As before, we need a new FBD every time the loading changes.

Review of Beam Supports 3 equilibrium equations: Σ FY = 0, Σ FX = 0, Σ M = 0 Ignore the horizontal (x-direction) components, because these are axial loading.

Design of Beams for Bending Recall the largest normal stress in the beam subject to bending occurs at the surface and can be defined as

A safe design requires the maximum stress is no more than the allowable stress (σmax ≤ σall), soS
