Transcribed Image Text:A simply supported beam of length L=6m is carrying a uniformly distributed load of intensity q=12kN/m over its full span. The second moment of area of
the cross-section is 1.8x108mm4 and Young's modulus of its material is 200GPa. This beam is now required to carry a point load instead but without
exceeding the mid-span deflection in the original case. What is the maximum point load that can be placed at the mid-span of the beam to achieve the
same mid-span deflection of the distributed load case? Select the correct answer in kN to at least one decimal place.
O 1. The value of maximum point load at the mid-span in the beam is 45.0 kN
O 2. The value of maximum point load at the mid-span in the beam is 48.2 kN
O 3. The value of maximum point load at the mid-span in the beam is 42.3 kN
