Question 52

Statics | Shear Forces & Bending Moments | difficulty level 1

What would the shear force diagram look like for the section of a beam between two concentrated loads?

Explanation

The shear force that develops along the length of a beam varies in order to maintain equilibrium with the externally applied loads. Between two concentrated loads there is no change in the magnitude of the external loads, and as such the shear force remains constant.
