Beam Design Formulas With Shear and Moment Diagrams - Part2

Introduction
Introduction Notations Relative to “Shear and Moment

Diagrams”
Figures 1 through 32 provide a series of shear
and moment diagrams with accompanying formulas E = modulus of elasticity, psi
for design of beams under various static loading I = moment of inertia, in.4
conditions. L = span length of the bending member, ft.
Shear and moment diagrams and formulas are R = span length of the bending member, in.
excerpted from the Western Woods Use Book, 4th M= maximum bending moment, in.-lbs.
edition, and are provided herein as a courtesy of P = total concentrated load, lbs.
Western Wood Products Association. R = reaction load at bearing point, lbs.
V = shear force, lbs.
W= total uniform load, lbs.
w = load per unit length, lbs./in.
Δ = deflection or deformation, in.
x = horizontal distance from reaction to point
on beam, in.
