Chap 6 Graphical Method Updated

This document describes the graphical method for constructing shear force diagrams (SFD) and bending moment diagrams (BMD). It states that the slope of an SFD at each point equals the distributed load intensity at that point, and the slope of a BMD equals the shear at each point. It also provides equations to calculate the shear and moment for different regions of a cantilever beam subjected to distributed and concentrated loads.

SHEAR AND MOMENT DIAGRAMS
Regions of concentrated force and moment:

V  F  V  V   0
V  F

When F acts upward on


the beam, V is positive
so the shear will jump
upward

When F acts downward on


the beam, V is negative
so the shear will jump
downward

Regions of concentrated force and moment:

M  M  M 0  Vx  M  0
M  M 0

If moment M 0 is applied
clockwise, M is positive
so the moment diagram will
“jump” upward.
