The figure below shows a moving vehicle represented by two moving loads. The two loads are x = 2 m apart and they are to pass across a simple beam of length L = 12 m. If P1 = 53 kN and P2 = 98 kN, how far will the car travel when the moment induced is maximum. Simply put, what is the distance D (m) when the moment is maximum? Initial position: P1 P2 Position at maximum moment: D P1 L
