UPPSC AE (CE) Quiz 11

When shear force at a point is zero, then bending moment is ____ at that point:

i. cantilever

ii. fixed

iii. simply supported

iv. continuous

1) Bending moment is zero at the propped end and maximum at mid span.

2) Bending moment is zero at the propped end and max at fixed end.

3) Shear force is maximum at fixed end support.

4) Shear force variation is linear.

Which of the above statements are correct?

Find shear force at point A in simply supported beam of span L which is subject to eccentric point load W as shown in the figure.

i. SFD for simply supported beam subjected to triangular loading

ii. SFD for fixed beam subjected to uniformly distributed load

iii. BMD for cantilever beam subjected to uniformly distributed load

iv. BMD for simply supported beam subjected to couple

Reason(R): The SFD will be rectangular in shape, of height M/2L regardless of the position of the couple.
