The thrusts will be different, and will be as shown on thefigure, which will be clearly followed. Case 4. Sloping Cantilever.—This is worked in a similarmanner. Consider, for example, a uniform load of intensitym; on a cantilever of length I at an inclination 0 (Fig. 76). The 160 THE STRENGTH OF IMATERIALS curve will be a parabola. Its maximum ordinate will be iv I cos 6 rt J because the total weight will be w I, and it acts at a distance ^ from the abutment. The shear diagram
