pan. Two End Supports.Pig. 266. Let the load= W, extending from one supportover a portion = c, of the span, (on the left, say,) so thatW= ivc, w being the load per unit of length. Neglectweight of beam. For a free body Om of any lengthx < 0 B (i.e. < c), I momsm=0 gives pi tax -BjX^O .\M=B1x-… … Fig. 266. which shows the momentcurve for B G to be a straightline DC, tangent at D to theparabola 0 D representingeq. (1.) (If there were a con-centrated load at B, CDwould meet the tangent atD at an angle instead of co-inciding with it; let the stu-dent show why, from theshear diagram). The shear…
