Shear Force and Bending Moments
Consider a section x-x at a distance 6m from left hand support A

6m

5kN x 10kN 8kN

C x D E
4m 5m 5m 1m

RA = 8.2 kN RB=14.8kN

Imagine the beam is cut into two pieces at section x-x and is separated, as
shown in figure
4m 5kN 5m 1m
A
10kN 8kN B
6m
8.2 kN
9m 14.8 kN
To find the forces experienced by the section, consider any one portion of the
beam. Taking left hand portion
Transverse force experienced = 8.2 – 5 = 3.2 kN (upward)
Moment experienced = 8.2 × 6 – 5 × 2 = 39.2 kN-m (clockwise)
If we consider the right hand portion, we get
Transverse force experienced = 14.8 – 10 – 8 =-3.2 kN = 3.2 kN (downward)
Moment experienced = - 14.8 × 9 +8 × 8 + 10 × 3 = -39.2 kN-m = 39.2 kN-m
5kN 3.2 kN
A

8.2 kN 39.2 kN-m


10kN 8kN B

39.2 kN-m
3.2 kN 14.8 kN

Thus the section x-x considered is subjected to forces 3.2 kN and


moment 39.2 kN-m as shown in figure. The force is trying to shear off
the section and hence is called shear force. The moment bends the
section and hence, called bending moment.
Shear force at a section: The algebraic sum of the vertical forces
acting on the beam either to the left or right of the section is
known as the shear force at a section.
Bending moment (BM) at section: The algebraic sum of the moments
of all forces acting on the beam either to the left or right of the
section is known as the bending moment at a section

2.Sign convention for bending moments:

The bending moment is considered as Sagging Bending


Moment if it tends to bend the beam to a curvature having
convexity at the bottom as shown in the Fig. given below.
Sagging Bending Moment is considered as positive bending
moment.

Convexity

Fig. Sagging bending moment [Positive bending moment ]


Sign convention for bending moments:
Similarly the bending moment is considered as hogging
bending moment if it tends to bend the beam to a
curvature having convexity at the top as shown in the
Fig. given below. Hogging Bending Moment is
considered as Negative Bending Moment.

1. Shear Force and Bending Moment Diagrams
(SFD & BMD)

A) Shear Force Diagram (SFD):


The diagram which shows the variation of shear force along
the length of the beam is called Shear Force Diagram
(SFD).

B) Bending Moment Diagram (BMD):


The diagram which shows the variation of bending moment
along the length of the beam is called Bending Moment
Diagram (BMD).
3.Point of Contra flexure [Inflection point]

It is the point on the bending moment diagram where bending


moment changes the sign from positive to negative or vice
versa.

It is also called ‘Inflection point’. At the point of inflection


point or contra flexure the bending moment is zero.
