Question

Transcribed Image Text:Find expressions for shear force \( V \) and moment \( M \) at \( x = L/2 \) of beam \( AB \) in structure (a). Express \( V \) and \( M \) in terms of peak load intensity \( q_0 \) and beam length variable \( L \). Repeat for structure (b) but find \( V \) and \( M \) at the mid-span of member \( BC \).
**Diagram Explanation:**
- **Structure (a):**
- A beam \( AB \) is supported at point \( A \) and continues to point \( B \).
- Point \( C \) is located at a distance \( 4L/5 \) from \( B \).
- There is a triangular distributed load with peak intensity \( q_0 \) acting on \( AB \).
- The load spans the entire length \( L \) of \( AB \).
- A right triangle labeled with leg ratios \( 3 \) and \( 4 \) indicates the slope of member \( BC \).
- The action and moment are taken at mid-span \( L/2 \) of \( AB \).
- **Structure (b):**
- Similar to Structure (a) but the triangular load is inverted.
- The action and moment are taken at the mid-span of member \( BC \).
- The slope of \( BC \) is identical with the same leg ratios \( 3 \) and \( 4 \).
This diagram is used to analyze shear and moment at specified points within different loading scenarios and geometry.
