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