Pls answer with complete fbd and solution,

Moving load

1. A tractor weighing 3000 lb, with a wheel base of 9ft, carries a 1800 lb of its load on the rear
wheels. Compute the maximum moment and maximum shear when crossing a 14ft-span.
2. Three wheel loads roll as a unit across a 44-ft span. The loads are P1 = 4000 lb and P2 = 8000 lb
separated by 9ft, and P3 = 6000 lb at 8ft from P2. Determine the maximum moment and
maximum shear in the simply supported span.
3. A truck and a trailer combination crossing a 12-m span has axle loads of 10, 20 and 30 kN
separated respectively by distances of 3m and 5m. Compute the maximum moment and
maximum shear developed in the span.
