Determinethe shearing force and bending mo-ment at the points C and D, distant5 ft. from the nearest end. Also,illustrate graphically the shearingforce and bending moment at differ-ent points of the beam. Let R^, R^ be the reactions at Oand A, respectively. Then i?, . 30 = 600 . 20 + 200 . 30. 15 = 102000; .-. R^ = 3400 lbs., and R„ = 200 . 30 + 600 — R^ = 3200 lbs. The Shearing Force at C = 3400 — 200 . 5 = 2400 lbs. Z)=3400—200. 25—600= —22
