Shear Force and Bending Moment
Dr. Vishesh Ranjan Kar Assistant Professor Department of Mechanical Engineering NIT Jamshedpur
Beam Any member of machine or structure whose one dimension is very large as compared to other two dimensions and which can take lateral forces in the axial plane is called a beam. Beams are important structural member used in building construction. Their design is often based upon the ability to resist bending stress. Classification of beam Based on support beams classified as follows Cantilever beam Simply supported beam Over hanging beam Propped cantilever beam Fixed-Fixed beam Continuous beam
Cantilever Beam One end fixed/built in & the other end free Simply supported beam A beam having its ends freely resting on supports (like brick walls) is known as simply supported beam.
Over hanging beam A beam having one or both ends extended over the supports is known as over hanging. Propped cantilever beam When a support is provided at some suitable point of cantilever beam in order to resist the deflection of the beam, it is known as propped cantilever beam.
Fixed beam A beam having its both ends rigidly fixed or built in to the supporting walls or columns is known as fixed beam. Continuous beam Beam supported more than two supports.
Types of support Roller support When a beam rests on a sliding surface such as roller or any surface like a masonry wall the support is known as roller support. A roller support can sustain a force only normal to its surface, as the possible movement on the supporting surface doesn’t allow any resistance in that direction. Thus it has reaction normal to the surface only and the reaction along the rolling surface is zero. A roller support allows the rotation of the body.
Hinged In a hinged support no translational displacement of the beam is possible, however it is free to rotate. A hinged support can sustain reactions in vertical as well as horizontal direction. Fixed A beam built into a rigid support which does not allow any type of movement or rotation is known as fixed or built in support. a fixed support exerts a fixing movement & a reaction on the beam. Some important points In beams with hinged joints, the bending movement at the hinged is taken to be zero. Beams with more than two reaction component are treated as statically indeterminate.
Types of loading Loading can be divided in many ways but in this chapter we will discuss about the general type of loading on beam . Point /Concentrated load When load is being considered as acting at a point as shown in the figure is called point load. Note Practically point load can’t be placed on the beam. When a member is placed on a beam it cover some space/width. But for calculation purpose we consider as the load is transmitting at the central width of the member.
Uniformly distributed load/ U.D.L An uniformly distributed load is one which is spread uniformly over a beam so that each unit of length is loaded with same amount of load. Gradually varying load If the spread load is uniformly varying along the length then it is called uniformly varying load.
Span Span may be of two type say clear span and effective span. But when simply span is written this means it is effective span. Clear span Horizontal distance between two support.(1) Effective span This is the center line to center line distance between two supports.(2)
Shear force The shearing force at any point of loaded beam is the algebraic sum of all unbalanced vertical forces acting to one side of the point i.e., either to left/right side. Important Force at the section means a force of a certain magnitude acting at that point. Whereas shear force at a section means the sum of all the forces at one of the sides of that section.
F1=R1-W1-W2
F2=W3-R2
Shear force is assumed to be positive if it produces a clockwise moment & negative if it produces anticlockwise moment.
Bending moment (B.M) The bending moment at any point along a loaded beam is the algebraic sum of moments of all vertical forces acting to one side of the point about the point. Clockwise moment Anticlockwise moment: For equilibrium condition M1=M2 Clockwise moment +ve Anticlockwise moment -ve Moment for upward forces +ve moment Moments for downward forces –ve moment

Differential relation between W,F & M (load, shear force, bending moment) Consider a beam carrying an uniformly distributed load w per unit length. Now consider a small length δx of the beam between two section A-A1 & B-B1 as shown in the figure. Let the shear force and bending moment at a section A-A1 are F& M respectively. Similarly the shear force and bending moment at section B-B1 are
The rate of change of shear force or slope of the shear force is equal to the load intensity. Taking moment about C Hence the rate of change of bending moment along an uniform l d d b i l t h f

Some important points for drawing S.F & B.M diagrams The positive value of shear force and bending moment are plotted above the base line
& negative value below the base line. For vertical loads and reactions vertical up or down lines are drawn in shear force
diagram. The S.F between two vertical loads only, remains constant for that a horizontal line is
drawn between the load points. But B.M varies at constant rate according to the distance & for that an inclined straight line is drawn between the load points. For u.d.l. between two points shear force diagram will be inclined straight line &
bending moment diagram will be parabolic curve. For a beam consisting of both concentrated and uniformly distributed load the shear
force diagram will be inclined line for uniformly distributed portion & vertically up or down lines for the concentrated load or reaction. For bending moment the diagram shall be combination of parabolic curve and inclined straight line, i.e., the nature of curve shall be flattered and drawn between the inclined straight line & the parabolic curve. For a beam subjected to uniformly varying load the shear force & B.M diagram will be
parabolic & cubic curve respectively.
