INTRODUCTION
• A beam that primarily resists loads applied laterally to
the its axis has the mode of deflection in bending. The
loads that are applied to the beam are countered by the
beam's support points.
• Roller Support
• Fixed Support
Simple Support
• In this type of support, beam is simply supported
on the support.
• There is no connection
between the beam and the
support.
• Fixed Beam
• Cantilever Beam
Beam Types
• Overhanging Beam
• Continuous Beam

Question
A B
Solved Example

Ray Rby
Solved Example
• Solution:
ΣX = 0
(Not used since there is a lone horizontal
reaction which will not have an effect
vertically.)
ΣY = 0
Ra + Rb – 10 KN = 0
Ra + Rb = 10 KN (eq. 1)
Solved Example
• Solution:
ΣM = 0
So ΣMB = 0
(Ra X 3) – (10 X 1.5) = 0
3Ra – 15 = 0
» Ra = 5 KN; put this value in eq. 1
» Rb = 5 KN
