Thanks for your reply! Before I proceed, I want to make sure something.
In my calculation for the left body, I resolve vertical reaction into two components. One is used to find out the shear force and one is the axial force along the beam.
Is my concept here correct? If this is the case, how do...
Homework Statement
Force by uniform loading = 20(5) = 100kN
Vertical component of the uniform loading = 20(5)(3/5) = 60kN
Horizontal component of the loading = 20(5)(4/5) = 80kN
vertical reaction at roller support = Vr
vertical reaction at pin support = Vp
