Question

Consider the beam ABCD shown in the figure.




AB = BC = 4m
CD = 10 m
For a moving concentrated load of 50 kN on the beam, the magnitude of the maximum bending moment (in kN-m) obtained at the support C will be equal to ______

• A. 200

Answer 1

The correct option is A 200


AB = BC = 4m
CD = 10m
$\Rightarrow$ According to Muller Breslau Principle ILD for moment at C










For maximum bending moment





Hence, $M_{max}=50\times 4$

= 200 kNm
