Q.2 Determine the magnitude and the location of the resultant of the parallel force system given below. The force system acts on horizontal beam AB all force are vertical. The load intensity of the distributed load w = 30 N/m. draw the load diagram with distributed load replaced by its resultant, and find the resultant of the force system and its location neglect the weight of the beam. 50 N w= 30 N/m A B 4 m 2 m 1 m

Types of loading

In mechanical terminology, the term load indicates that external force/weight, either constant or variable, acts on a mechanical member/structure. The weight of an object of a specific material is also an external load, and the external force that works on a structure comes under the categories of loading. The external load generates its effects as stress and strain in the structure.
