With the origin taken at the left end of the span, the shear at any point can be obtained from
Eq. (3.80e) by integration: V w dx wx C1, where C1 is a constant. When x
0, V R1 wL / 2, and when x L, V R2 wL / 2. For these conditions to be satisfied,
C1 wL/ 2. Hence the equation for shear is V(x) wx wL/ 2 (Fig. 3.31b).
The bending moment at any point is, by Eq. (3.80d ), M(x) V dx (wx wL/ 2)
dx wx 2 / 2 wLx / 2 C2, where C2 is a constant. In this case, when x 0, M 0.
Hence C2 0, and the equation for bending moment is M(x) 12w (x2 Lx), as shown
in Fig. 3.31c. The maximum bending moment occurs at midspan, where x L / 2, and equals
wL2 / 8.
From Eq. (3.80c), the slope of the deflected member at any point along the span is

as shown in Fig. 3.31e. The maximum deflection occurs at midspan, where x L / 2, and
equals 5wL4 / 384EI.
For concentrated loads, the equations for shear and bending moment are derived in the
region between the concentrated loads, where continuity of these diagrams exists. Consider
the simply supported beam subjected to a concentrated load at midspan (Fig. 3.28a). From
equilibrium equations, the reactions R1 and R2 equal P / 2. With the origin taken at the left
end of the span, w(x) 0 when x L / 2. Integration of Eq. (3.80e) gives V(x) C3, a
constant, for x 0 to L / 2, and V(x) C4, another constant, for x L / 2 to L. Since V
R1 P / 2 at x 0, C3 P / 2. Since V R2 P / 2 at x L, C4 P / 2. Thus, for
0 x L / 2, V P / 2, and for L / 2 x L, V P / 2 (Fig. 3.28b). Similarly, equations

for bending moment, slope, and deflection can be expressed from x 0 to L / 2 and again
for x L / 2 to L, as shown in Figs. 3.28c, 3.28d, and 3.28e, respectively.
In practice, it is usually not convenient to derive equations for shear and bending-moment
diagrams for a particular loading. It is generally more convenient to use equations of equilibrium to plot the shears, moments, and deflections at critical points along the span. For
example, the internal forces at the quarter span of the uniformly loaded beam in Fig. 3.31
may be determined from the free-body diagram in Fig. 3.50. From equilibrium conditions
