An illustration from The elements of the mechanics of materials and of power transmission, 1911, leaf 45
whole load, is equal to W. It is evident that the support reactions are each — pounds. 2 To find the bending moment at any section a, distant x fromthe left support, we may assume the uniform load to be madeup of a number of parallel forces each equal to w. There are BENDING-MOMENT AND SHEAR… … Fig. 35. The bending moment at the section a is then ,, o K^^ ^Lx wx^Ma = Kix — wxX- = 2 2 2 — {L — X) = 2 2 That is, the bending moment at the section is proportional tothe product of the segments into which the section divides thebeam, and the bending-moment diagram is therefore a parabola,as…
