A simple beam with a span length of 6m is subjected by a distributed live load of (9.6+0.8+0.7)kN/m on whole span length. A beam is a reinforced concrete with a unit weight of 24.5kN/m3, (150+10)mm width and (300+140)mm depth. Determine the total reaction on each support due to the weight and live load. Use 18.4L +1.6LL equation in computing for the total reaction on each support.
