The shear force V at a cross section just to the right of A is equal to Ra = 8.2 kN. Moving to the right, the shear force remains constant until we reach the first point load at 3 m. The shear force then drops by 5 kN to 3.2 kN. The shear force remains constant until we reach the start of the UDL at 3 m. The shear force then decreases linearly by 1000 N/m over 4 m to -0.8 kN. The shear force remains constant until we reach the second point load at 7 m. The shear force then drops by 5 kN to -5.8 kN. Finally, the shear force jumps up by Rb = 5.8 kN to zero at B. draw diagram to show workings
