A propped cantilever beam having a span of 6 m is loaded with a uniformly distributed load of 12kN/m all throughout its unsupported length. Assume El is constant. Determine:
a. The vertical reaction on the roller support in kN.
b. The vertical reaction at the fixed-end support in kN.
c. The fixed-end moment in KN-m.
d. The maximum deflection in terms of El.
Note! A cantilever beam for which one end is fixed and other is provided support, in order to resist the deflection of the beam, is called a propped cantilever beam.
