Question

How to solve this question step by step 

**Problem 9.4** - Draw the shear (V) and bending moment (M) diagrams for the beam below.

### Diagram Details:
- **Beam Configuration:**
  - The beam starts at point A, which is fixed.
  - The beam ends at point B, which is supported by a roller.
  - The total length of the beam is 12 meters, divided as follows:
    - Section AC = 3 meters
    - Section CD = 3 meters
    - Section DE = 3 meters
    - Section EB = 3 meters

- **Loads and Supports:**
  - A concentrated moment of 8 kN·m is applied clockwise at point C.
  - A uniform distributed load of 2 kN/m is applied from point C to point D (3 meters).
  - A hinge is located at point D.
  - A concentrated downward load of 4 kN is applied at point E.

### Task:
- Construct the shear force diagram (V).
- Construct the bending moment diagram (M).

### Analysis:
- Consider the reactions at A and B due to the support constraints.
- Apply equilibrium equations to solve for unknown reactions and internal forces.
- Use the given loads and moments to calculate shear and moment values across each section.

This problem requires applying principles of statics to determine internal stress resultants in the beam caused by external loads and support reactions. Understanding these diagrams helps in assessing the beam's structural performance under the given load conditions.
