A beam is simply support at the ends and is continuous over two spans. The left-hand span is 16 ft and the right-hand span is 20 ft. The beam supports a uniform load of 900 plf, which includes its own weight, over the entire 36 ft and also a concentrated load of 10,000 lb applied at a point that is 5 ft from the left-hand end of the beam. Determine the bending moment at the in intermediate support due to the uniform load only. A. -38,600 ft-lb B. -37,800 ft-lb C. -36,500 ft-lb D. -35,200 ft-lb
