**Problem 5**

For the beam and loading shown, (a) draw the shear and bending moment diagrams, (b) determine the equations of the shear and bending moment curves, (c) determine the maximum absolute value of the shear and bending moment.

**Diagram Explanation:**

The diagram depicts a horizontal beam AB supported at point B. The beam is subjected to two types of loads:

1. A uniformly distributed load (UDL) of 2 kips/ft starting from point A extending to point C, which is 4 ft away from A.
2. A concentrated load of 15 kips acting downward at point D, which is 8 ft away from point A.

The total length of the beam from A to B is divided into sections: AC is 4 ft, CD is 4 ft, and DB is 4 ft, making a total of 12 ft. 

To solve the problem, one must consider the reactions at the supports and the effects of each type of load. The loadings must be used to draw shear force and bending moment diagrams, and equations must be determined to express these distributions mathematically over the length of the beam. Maximum shear and moment must be calculated along the beam.
