• The beam supports a
a.uniform dead load of 0.4 k/ft,
b. live load of 1.5 k/ft,
c.single live concentrated force of 8 k.
Determine (a) the maximum positive moment at C, and (b) the
maximum positive vertical reaction at B. Assume A is a roller and
B is a pin

• If the material is homogeneous and behaves in a linear elastic manner, then
Hooke’s law applies, Also, since the flexure formula applies, Combining
these equations and substituting into the above equation, we have

Moment-Area Method Theorem 1:
• The change in slope between any two points on the elastic curve equals
the area of the M/EI diagram between these two points
• The notation is referred to as the angle of the tangent at B measured with
respect to the tangent at A. From the proof it should be evident that this angle
is measured counterclockwise from tangent A to tangent B if the area of the
M/EI diagram is positive
• Theorem 2: The vertical deviation of the tangent at a point (A) on the
elastic curve with respect to the tangent extended from another point (B)
equals the “moment” of the area under the M/EI diagram between the two
points (A and B).
