Lecture 7

This document discusses beams and beam mechanics. It covers: 1) The different types of loads that can act on beams, including shear forces and bending moments. 2) How to calculate shear forces and bending moments on beams using sign conventions and the principles of equilibrium. 3) How to draw shear force and bending moment diagrams by taking sections of the beam and summing the forces and moments. 4) Beam bending and how normal stress is produced in beams due to bending, with the neutral axis experiencing no stress.
