In order to find the bending moment at each point
The forum discussion focuses on calculating the axial force (Fy) and bending moment (M) on an L-shaped beam subjected to combined loading. The user initially attempts to derive these values using stress equations and strain measurements obtained from rosettes. Participants suggest producing shear and moment diagrams to identify potential errors and emphasize the importance of using LaTeX for mathematical clarity. The discussion highlights the necessity of understanding the relationship between external loads and internal moments, particularly at points a, b, c, and d along the beam.
PREREQUISITESStructural engineers, civil engineering students, and anyone involved in analyzing beam mechanics and combined loading scenarios will benefit from this discussion.
Yes, the moment at section ##a-b## and ##c-d## are defined by ##M(x)## which is a function of ##F_x, F_y##.morpheus343 said:In order to find the bending moment at each point
