    Use the grid paper provided on the next pages, fill in your name and student number on
    the top of the page in the spaces provided and hand these papers in with your answer
    script.

    1. Refer to beam 1 on the next pages. Determine the following,

    a. Calculate all resultants and reactions ‘C’ and ‘D’. (3)

    b. Draw the Shear Force diagram (SFD), clearly showing the shear force’s values and
    shape. Make sure that the SFD relates to the loading. Mark a zero value with an X or 0
    to show that you have not forgotten it. (7)

    c. Draw the Bending Moment Diagram (BMD), showing the values of the bending moment
    and its shape clearly (if it is a curve (parabolic shape), note that on the diagram). Make
    sure that the BMD relates to the SFD. Mark a zero value with an X or 0 to show that
    you have not forgotten it (7)

    d. Draw the Deflective Shape Diagram (DFS) qualitatively. Make sure that the DFS
    relates to the BMD. (3)

    e. Indicate the position of the bending steel reinforcement in the longitudinal section at the
    bottom of Figure 1. (3)

    2. Refer to beam 2 on the next pages. Determine the following,

    a. Calculate all resultants and reactions ‘B’ and ‘F’. (5)

    b. Draw the Shear Force diagram (SFD), clearly showing the shear force's values and
    shape. Make sure that the SFD relates to the loading. Mark a zero value with an X or 0
    to show that you have not forgotten it. (13)

    c. Draw the Bending Moment Diagram (BMD), showing the values of the bending moment
    and its shape clearly (if it is a curve (parabolic shape), note that on the diagram). Make
    sure that the BMD relates to the SFD. Mark a zero value with an X or 0 to show that
    you have not forgotten it (13)

    d. Draw the Deflective Shape Diagram (DFS) qualitatively. Make sure that the DFS
    relates to the BMD. (3)

    e. Indicate the position of the bending steel reinforcement in the longitudinal section at the
    bottom of Figure 2. (3)
