Strength Of Materials

  1. A uniformly loaded propped cantilever beam and its free body diagram are shown below. The reactions are
    1. R1 =
      5qL
      R2 =
      3qL
      ,M =
      qL²
      888
    2. R1 =
      3qL
      ,R2 =
      5qL
      ,M =
      qL²
      888
    3. R1 =
      5qL
      ,R2 =
      3qL
      ,M = 0
      88
    4. R1 =
      3qL
      ,R2 =
      5qL
      ,M = 0
      88
Correct Option: A


R1 + R2 = ql     ...(i)
Moment about (1),

R2l +
ql²
− M      ...(ii)
6

Moment about (2),
R1l −
ql²
− M      ...(iii)
6

From (i), (ii), (iii), we get
R1 =
5ql
,R2 =
3ql
and M =
ql²
888
