Given data:
Span (L) = 10 m
UDL (w) = 5 kN/m
Calculations:
Reaction force at each Support
Additional Information
A simply supported beam has two supports: typically one hinged (pinned) and one roller.
When a uniformly distributed load (UDL) is applied across the entire span:
-
The load is symmetrical.
-
The reactions at both supports are equal because the system is in equilibrium.
-
The total vertical reaction must balance the total load, and the moments about any point (usually taken about one support) must also sum to zero.
