Question
Draw the shear and moment diagrams for the beam. Consider figure.

Transcribed Image Text:The image depicts a beam scenario in structural engineering. It shows a horizontal beam supported at two points: point A and point B. The beam has a non-uniform distributed load applied to it.
### Detailed Description:
- **Beam Supports:**
- **Point A** is supported by a pin support, which allows rotation but not translation.
- **Point B** is supported by a roller support, which allows horizontal movement but restricts vertical movement.
- **Distributed Load:**
- The load gradually increases from point A to point B.
- The maximum load intensity applied is \(12 \, \text{kN/m}\), positioned at point B.
- **Distance Measurements:**
- The beam spans a total length divided into:
- \(3 \, \text{m}\) from A to an intermediate point C.
- \(6 \, \text{m}\) from C to B.
This type of load distribution creates a shear force and bending moment along the length of the beam, important for analysis in mechanical and structural engineering.
