Q: In a simply supported beam with a uniform load, where does the maximum shear force occur?
Solution:
In a simply supported beam with a uniform load, the maximum shear force occurs at the supports.
Steps: 5
Show Steps
Step 1: Understand what a simply supported beam is. It is a beam that is supported at both ends and can freely rotate.
Step 2: Recognize that a uniform load means the weight is evenly distributed along the length of the beam.
Step 3: Identify the locations of the supports. These are the points where the beam rests.
Step 4: Know that shear force is the internal force that acts along the beam to resist the load.
Step 5: Realize that the maximum shear force occurs at the supports because this is where the beam experiences the greatest reaction to the load.
