SIMPLY SUPPORTED BEAM WITH MOMENT

Simply supported beam with moment calculator for a simple beam which is subjected to a moment at center, at end or at any intermediate point.

Simply Supported Beam with Concentrated Moment
INPUT PARAMETERS
Parameter Value  
Moment [M] *

RESULTS
Parameter Value
Reaction Force 1 [R1] ---
Reaction Force 2 [R2] ---
Transverse Shear Force @ distance x [Vx] ---
Maximum Transverse Shear Force [Vmax] ---
Moment @ distance x [Mx] ---
Maximum Moment [Mmax] ---
Slope 1 [θ1] ---
Slope 2 [θ2] ---
Slope @ distance x [θx] ---
Maximum Slope [θmax] ---
Deflection @ distance x [yx] ---
Maximum Deflection [ymax] ---
Bending Stress @ distance x [σx] ---
Maximum Bending Stress [σmax] ---

Note * : R1 and R2 are vertical end reactions at the left and right, respectively, and are positive upward. Shear forces and deflections are positive in upward direction and negative in downward direction. All moments are positive when producing compression on the upper portion of the beam cross section. All slopes are positive when up and to the right.

Note: Stresses are positive numbers, and these are stress magnitudes in the beam. It does not distinguish between tension or compression of the structural beam. This distinction depends on which side of the beam's neutral plane c input corresponds.
