Tutorial Questions on Bending (with Solutions)

Q1. Calculate the shear force V and bending moment M at a cross section located 0.5 m from
the fixed support of the cantilever beam AB shown (see figure).

Q2. A simply supported beam AB supports a trapezoidally distributed load (see figure). The
intensity of the load varies linearly from 50 kN/m at support A to 25 kN/m at support B.
Calculate the shear force V and bending moment M at the midpoint of the beam.
Q3. Draw the shear-force and bending-moment diagrams for a simple beam AB supporting
two equal concentrated loads P. (Note: The bending moment is plotted in the tension side of
the beam)

Q4. A simple beam AB is subjected to a counter-clockwise couple of moment M0 acting at


distance a from the left-hand support (see figure).
Draw the shear-force and bending-moment diagrams for this beam. (Note: The bending
moment is plotted in the tension side of the beam)
Q5. Draw the shear-force and bending-moment diagrams for a cantilever beam AB carrying a
uniform load of intensity q over one-half of its length (see figure). (Note: The bending
moment is plotted in the tension side of the beam)

Q6. The cantilever beam AB shown in the figure is subjected to a concentrated load P at the
midpoint and a counterclockwise couple of moment M1 = PL/4 at the free end.
Draw the shear-force and bending-moment diagrams for this beam. (Note: The bending
moment is plotted in the tension side of the beam)
Q7. The simple beam AB shown in the figure is subjected to a concentrated load P and a
clockwise couple M1 = PL/3 acting at the third points.
Draw the shear-force and bending-moment diagrams for this beam. (Note: The bending
moment is plotted in the tension side of the beam)

Q8. The cantilever beam shown in the figure supports a concentrated load and a segment of
uniform load.
Draw the shear-force and bending-moment diagrams for this cantilever beam. (Note: The
bending moment is plotted in the tension side of the beam)
Q9. Determine the maximum tensile stress !! and maximum compressive stress !" due to
the load P acting on the simple beam AB (see figure).
Data are as follows: P = 6.2 kN, L = 3.2 m, d = 1.25 m, b = 80 mm, t = 25 mm, h = 120 mm,
and h1 = 90 mm.
Q10. A simple beam of length L = 5 m carries a uniform load of intensity q = 5.8 kN/m and
concentrated load P = 22.5 kN (see figure). Assuming allowable stress [!] = 110 MPa,
calculate the required section modulus S.
