Define a point load.
Think about where the load is applied.
What does UDL stand for?
Consider what 'uniformly distributed' means.
What is a point load?
Consider where the load is applied.
True or False: A uniformly distributed load is localized.
Think about the term 'distributed'.
A cantilever beam is fixed at one end and has a point load at the free end. Calculate the reactions at the support and the maximum bending moment.
Remember the relationship between loads, reactions, and moments.
Given a simply supported beam with a length of 10m subjected to a uniform load of 5kN/m, derive the shear and bending moment diagrams.
Use equilibrium equations for reactions before sketching the diagrams.
