2. For the structural beam loaded and supported as shown in Figure 2, (a) Draw a free body diagram and find the support reaction forces/moments. (3 marks) Determine the shear force values at the supports and other relevant transition points. Using these, draw the Shear Force Diagram (SFD). (b) (c) (d) ) (7 marks) Determine the bending moment values at the supports and other relevant transition points and draw the bending moment diagram (BMD). (7 marks) Write the mathematical expressions for shear force and bending moment at a section X-X between the points A and B, which is at a distance x from support A. (4 marks) Find the distance from support A to the position of maximum bending moment and determine the value of Mmax. (4 marks) 2 kN/m 10 KN (e) WA B с D VILA 5 m 3 m 2 m Figure 2
