Question
The compound beam shown in Figure 2.1 has an internal hinge at point B. It is fixed (clamped) at
point C and supported by a roller at point A. The length of each segment is shown in the figure.
The beam is carrying a distributed load on segment AB and a concentrated load at point E. Take
4w1 = 2w2 = 8 kip/ft.
b) Calculate the internal resultant loadings (normal and shear forces and bending moment) at
point D and at the midpoint of segment BE.
