Assignment No. 3 (Unit-2)
1. For the overhanging beam shown in figure 1, draw shear force and bending moment
diagrams. Find out the position and magnitude of maximum bending moment. Also
determine the points of contraflexure.
2. Why shear force and bending moment appear in a loaded beam? Develop an expression
between loading, shear force and bending moment.
3. For the beam shown in figure 2, draw the shear force and bending moment diagrams.
4. Draw the shear force and bending moment diagram for the beam shown in figure 3.
5. Draw the SFD and BMD for the given beam figure 4. Also find the position of maximum
BM and points of contraflexure.
6. Shear force diagram for a beam is shown in figure 5, draw loading diagram. End A is the
left hand support then also find the position and nature of support. (COMPULSORY)
