Anu Bhardwaj · Accepted Answer

Given:

Beam ABC

A: pinned support

C: roller support

Distributed load: 1.5 kN/m over the right 4 m span (from B to C)

Lengths:

AB = 2 m

BC = 4 m

Total span = 6 m

Step 1: Support Reactions

Let’s find vertical reactions at supports A and C.

Let:

$R_A$ = reaction at A (vertical)

$R_C$ = reaction at C (vertical)

Total distributed load: $w = 1.5 \, ext{kN/m}$ over 4 m ⇒ Total load = $1.5 imes 4 = 6 \, ext{kN}$

This load acts at the center of the 4 m segment, i.e., 2 m to the left of point C, or 4 m from point A.
