VandM diagrams SSCL M D C 01

A beam is loaded and supported as shown, with F = 600 lb, M = 3020 ft*lb, and w = 220 lb/ft.

The dimensions on the figure are a = 2.4 ft, b = 10.3 ft and c = 1.7 ft.

Draw and label shear and bending moment diagrams for this beam. From your diagrams, enter the following information.

Limits of an interval are defined anywhere there is a change in the loading or the shear diagram becomes zero. The first interval is on the left and subsequent intervals are in order moving to the right.

Reactions:
$R_B$ =
$R_C$ =
