This document contains 5 problems about determining resultant forces and moments for beams and structures with multiple parallel or concentrated loads. The problems involve calculating the resultant moment at different points for a crooked cantilever beam and utility pole, finding the single resultant force equivalent to multiple parallel forces for different beam examples, and determining the magnitudes of components that would duplicate the effect of parallel loads on a wooden member.

Resultant of Parallel Forces: Section 2.3
2.51 Find the single resultant force that would duplicate the effect of the four parallel forces shown. Use the reference origin given in the diagram.
2.52 A three-meter-long horizontal wood beam weighs
30 N per meter of length and supports two concentrated vertical loads as shown. Determine the single resultant force that would duplicate the effect of these three parallel forces. Use the reference origin shown.
2.53 A 16-foot-long horizontal wood member weighs
20 lb./ft. and supports three concentrated loads. Determine the magnitudes of components A and B that would be equivalent in effect as the four parallel forces acting on the system.
