Transcribed Image Text:The diagram displays a horizontal beam subjected to a uniformly distributed load, labeled as \( W \), applied over its entire length. The beam is fixed at point \( C \), and the load is represented by downward arrows evenly spaced across the beam's length.
Key points on the beam:
- Point \( A \) (left end of the beam).
- Point \( B \) (midpoint of the beam).
- Point \( C \) (right end, where the beam is fixed to a support).
The beam is divided into two equal segments, each of length \( \frac{L}{2} \), where \( L \) is the total length of the beam.
Task:
Draw the shear force and bending moment diagrams for this beam configuration. The load \( W \) and the fixed nature of the support at \( C \) will influence the shape and values on these diagrams.
