How do I know if the forces are positive or negative 

Problem 4.6: 4.55.
The cantilever beam is built into a wall at O. Neglecting the weight of the beam, determine the support
reactions at O.

360 – 400 = -40 N
Ry
= 200 – 120 – 100 = -20 N
M = 800 + 540+ 600 – 960 – 1100 = -120 Nm
Thus, reaction at O is –40i – 20j N and a clockwise couple 120 Nm.
