Shear and Moment in Beams

Saifur Rahman Tushar


Lecturer

Department of Industrial and Production Engineering


Bangladesh University of Textiles, Dhaka, Bangladesh
Shear and Moment in Beams

• The internal forces in a straight two-force member can produce only tension or compression in that
member

• The internal forces in any other type of member (Beams, Cables) usually produce shear and bending
as well.

• This lecture is devoted to the analysis of the internal forces in an important type of engineering structures,
namely,

• Beams, which are usually long, straight prismatic members designed to support loads applied at
various points along the member.

• This chapter is concerned with the variation in shear and bending moment in beams subjected to various
combinations of loadings under different conditions of support
• Straight two-force member AB is in equilibrium under application of F and
-F.

• In the case of a straight two-force member, the internal forces that the two
portions of the member exert on each other are equivalent to axial forces;
There exists no shear or bending

• Multiforce member ABCD is in equilibrium under


application of cable and member contact forces.

• It is clear that the action of the internal forces in member


AD is not limited to producing tension or compression
as in the case of straight two-force members;

• The internal forces also produce shear and bending. The force F is an axial force; the force V
is called a shearing force; and the moment M is known as the bending moment at J.
Beams
• Beam - structural member designed to support loads applied at various points along its length

• The term beam refers to a slender bar that carries transverse loading; that is, the applied force are
perpendicular to the bar
• In most cases, the loads are perpendicular to the axis of the beam and will cause only shear and
bending in the beam. When the loads are not at a right angle to the beam, they will also produce axial
forces in the beam.

• The internal forces give rise to two kinds of stresses on a transverse section of a beam: (1) normal stress
that is caused by bending moment and (2) shear stress due to the shear force.

• Knowing the distribution of the shear force and the bending moment in a beam is essential for the
computation of stresses and deformations

• Beam design is two-step process:


1) determine shearing forces and bending moments produced by applied loads
2) select cross-section best suited to resist shearing forces and bending moments
Types of loads on beams

• Beam can be subjected to concentrated loads or distributed loads or combination of both.

• A concentrated load is one that acts over so small distance that it can be assumed to act at a point
• Distributed load acts over a considerable length of the beam
 It may be uniformly distributed over the entire length or over part of the length
• Distributed load may also be uniformly varying or nonuniform
 In a nonuniformly varying or triangular load, the intensity of loading increases or decreases at a
constant rate
Point Load

Uniform distribution of the weight of a solid box

Uniformly Varying Load


Types of Beam Support

• Beams are classified according to way in which they are supported.

• Reactions at beam supports are determinate if they involve only three unknowns. Otherwise,
they are statically indeterminate.
Simply supported beam

Cantilever beam

Overhanging Beam Continuous Beam


Shear Moment equation and Shear Moment Diagram

• The determination of the internal force system acting at a given section of a beam : draw
a free-body diagram that expose these forces and then compute the forces using
equilibrium equations.

• The goal of the beam analysis －determine the shear force V and the bending moment M
at every cross section of the beam.

• To derive the expressions for V and M in terms of the distance x measured along the
beam. By plotting these expressions to scale, obtain the shear force and bending
moment diagrams for the beam.

• The shear force and bending moment diagrams are convenient visual references to the
internal forces in a beam; in particular, they identify the maximum values of V and M.
• A force that tends to bend the beam downward is said to produce a positive bending
moment.

• A force that tends to shear the left portion of the beam upward with respect to the right
portion is said to produce a positive shearing force.
