n Magnitude of drop = Concentrated Load
n Between concentrated loads, Moment Diagram Slopes
n Uniform loads create gradual drop in Shear ( straight line )
n Uniform loads create curve (downward cup) in Moment
Diagram
n Overhangs and cantilevers will always have a negative
Moment in Moment Diagram. Simply supported beams
always have positive Moments
n VMAX always occurs at support
Moment is minimum
n MMAX occurs where V = 0
n Uniform load coefficient, w, = slope in Shear Diagram
n Point of Inflection (P.O.I.) is a point on the
Moment Diagram where M = 0
n Point of Inflection only happens when a beam has an
overhang
n If Loading Diagram (FBD) is symmetrical, then the Shear
Diagram and the Moment Diagram are also symmetrical.
n Maximum Shear dictates how much Beam area is needed
n Maximum Moment dictates how much Bema Depth is needed
n If a hole must be punched out of a Beam to allow for passage
of pipe or similar reduction, this must happen at a location of
low Shear and low Bending Moment
