Shear and Moment Diagram Review


Consider a simple beam shown of length L that carries a uniform load of w (N/m) throughout its length and
is held in equilibrium by reactions R1 and R2. Assume that the beam is cut at point C a distance of x from
the left support and the portion of the beam to the right of C be removed. The portion removed must then
be replaced by vertical shearing force V together with a couple M to hold the left portion of the bar in
equilibrium under the action of R1 and wx.

The couple M is called the resisting moment or moment and the force V is called the resisting shear
or shear. The sign of V and M are taken to be positive if they have the senses indicated above.
Sample Problem No. 1 (SMD – simply supported beam)
Write shear and moment equations for the simply supported beam as shown in the figure. In each problem,
let x be the distance measured from left end of the beam. Also, draw shear and moment diagrams, specifying
values at all change of loading positions and at points of zero shear. Neglect the mass of the beam in each
problem.

Solution:
Begin by computing the reactions. Applying ƩMB = 0 gives RA = 3.33 kN, and ƩMA = 0 yields RB=
6.67 kN. A check of these values is given by ƩFy = 0. The sections in the beam at which the loading
conditions change are called change of load points and are designated by the letters A, B, and C.

ƩMB = 0 (assuming clockwise positive)


RA (12) – P (4) = 0
RA (12) = P (4)
RA = ((10(4))/12
RA = 3.33 kN

ƩMA = 0 (assuming clockwise positive)


P (8) – RB (12) = 0
P (8) = RB (12)
RB = ((10(8))/12
RB = 6.67 kN
Check:
ƩFy = 0 (assuming upward positive)
RA + RB = P
3.33 + 6.67 = 10
10Kn = 10Kn (ok)

Shear Equations:
VA = 3.33 kN
VC- = 3.33 kN +0 = 3.33 kN
VC+ = 3.33 kN + (-10 kN) = -6.67 kN
VB = -6.67 kN +6.67 kN = 0

Moment Equations:
MA = 0
MC = 3.33 kN x 8 m = 26.6 kN.m
MB = 26.6 kN.m – (6.67kN x 4m) = 0
Sample Problem No. 2 (SMD – simply supported beam)
Write shear and moment equations for the simply supported beam as shown in the figure. In each problem,
let x be the distance measured from left end of the beam. Also, draw shear and moment diagrams, specifying
values at all change of loading positions and at points of zero shear. Neglect the mass of the beam in each
problem.

Sample Problem No. 3 (SMD – cantilevered beam)


Write shear and moment equations for the cantilevered beam as shown in the figure. In each problem, let x
be the distance measured from left end of the beam. Also, draw shear and moment diagrams, specifying
values at all change of loading positions and at points of zero shear. Neglect the mass of the beam in each
problem.
Given: F = 15 kN, L= 10 m and a = 3 m

Begin by computing the reactions. Applying ƩFy = 0 Ray is equal to 15 KN and by applying ƩMc
= 0 assuming counter clockwise positive, we obtain RAx = 0 and MA is equal to 45KN.m. And the, we
compute for the shear and moment equations to draw the shear and moment diagram.
Sample Problem No.4 (SMD – cantilevered beam)
Write shear and moment equations for the cantilevered beam as shown in the figure. In each problem, let x
be the distance measured from left end of the beam. Also, draw shear and moment diagrams, specifying
values at all change of loading positions and at points of zero shear. Neglect the mass of the beam in each
problem.
Continuous beams using the Moment Distribution Method
Moment distribution is based on the method of successive approximation developed by Hardy
Cross (1885–1959) in his stay at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC). This method is
applicable to all types of rigid frame analysis.
A. Relative stiffness
K = I/L ; If far end of member is fixed
K = (3/4)(I/L) ; If far end of member is hinged

B. Distribution Factor
DF = K/ƩK ; Joints with 2 or more members
DF = 0 ; Fixed
DF = 1 (Pin/Roller)

C. Carry Over Moment = M/2


D. Fixed End Moment (See Figure D.1)

E. Sign Convention
Counter clockwise member end moments are considered positive.

Sample Problem No.5 (MDM – continuous beam)

Given: I = 1,500 in4
E = 29,000 ksi
