so the force acting on each section is different? this is what's confusing me i think! how do i work out the different forces say at 6 points along the axle...

with the axle fixed on the right hand side does this mean the only shear force is where the force is acting (in the centre of the 3rd block)?

i have been set a question to draw the shear force and bending moment diagrams for the loading condition shown on the diagram, and am not quite sure how to do this... do i need to work out other forces along the diagram? and help...much appriciated thanks!
