Consider the following statements with reference to a continuous beam supported at A, C and E for which shear force diagram is shown in the below figure.
There is
1. A concentrated load acting at point B.
2. A concentrated load acting at point D.
3. A uniformly distributed load acting on the portion CE.
Which of these statements are correct?
(d)
dVdx=W
Slope of SFD = load intensity
There is sudden change in SFD at point B so there is concentrated load. Slope of SFD is constant in portion CE shows that UDL is acting there.
