A beam of length L is designed to support a uniform load of intensity q (see figure). If the supports of the beam are placed at the ends, creating a simple beam, the maximum bending moment in the beam is qL2/8. However, if the supports of the beam are moved symmetrically toward the middle of the beam (as shown), the maximum bending moment is reduced.
