Define non-uniform bending.
Think about how moments vary along a beam.
What does a distributed load affect in beam analysis?
Consider how loads influence internal forces.
What defines non-uniform bending in a beam?
Think about the condition of the bending moment.
True or False: A distributed load affects only the bending moment.
Consider what happens to forces in a beam.
A 5m cantilever beam has a triangular distributed load that varies from 0kN at the wall to 10kN at the free end. Calculate the shear force and bending moment at 2m from the wall.
Break down the load into sections; think about the moments created.
A simply supported beam with varying distributed loads is subjected to calculate the point of maximum bending. Describe your method.
Start with the boundary conditions and work towards finding internal forces.
