a) Calculate the vertical shear specific to that member at appropriate intervals across the length of the free-body diagram. Be sure to solve for locations where shear passes through zero.
b) Draw the related shear diagram. Show locations where shear passes through zero.

Transcribed Image Text:(a) On each sheet of engineering paper reserved for analysis, calculate the vertical shear
specific to that member at appropriate intervals across the length of the free-body
diagram. Be sure to solve for locations where shear passes through zero.
(b) On each sheet of engineering paper containing the free-body diagram, neatly draw
the related shear diagram directly below the associated free-body diagram. The
shear diagram should be located in the middle one-third of the page. Reserve the
bottom one-third of the sheet for the bending moment diagram introduced in Chap-
ter 12. Be sure to show locations where shear passes through zero.
