4 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
Define shear force in your own words.
Think about how forces act on structures.
What is a bending moment?
Remember the formula is related to force and distance.
What is the primary purpose of a shear force in beam design?
Focus on the definition of shear force.
True or False: A bending moment is always zero at the supports of a simply supported beam.
Remember the behavior of beams at supports.
A cantilever beam is fixed at one end and has a load of 300 N applied at the free end. Calculate the shear force and bending moment at the fixed support.
Consider the distance from the load to the support.
A simply supported beam has a span of 4 meters with a center load of 500 N. Draw the shear and moment diagrams immediately after applying the load.
Think about how the load distributes across the entire length of the beam.
