Determine the vertical reaction force at B. Let w = 22.0 kN/m, a = 6 m, and b = 10 m.

The floor system of a hospital patient room consists of a 3-inch-thick reinforced concrete slab resting on four steel beams (A = 19.8 in.2), which are supported by two steel girders (A = 33.4 in.2). The girders, in turn, are supported by four columns. Determine the live load acting on column H.

The beam is fixed at wall B. Determine the internal shear force at point C, which is x = 6 ft to the right of support A. Let L = 30 ft, M = 1,050 lb·ft, P = 725 lb and w0 = 250 lb/ft.

The change in the shear load diagram is equal to the _______ under the _______.

Determine the horizontal reaction force at A. Let P1 = 70 kN, P2 = 125 kN, P3 = 145 kN, and a = b = c = d = 2.0 m.

Determine the magnitude of the reaction moment at A. Let P1 = 31.4 kips, P2 = 47.5 kips, and a = b = c = d = 8 ft.

Determine the vertical reaction force at B. Let P1 = 180 kN, P2 = 190 kN, P3 = 70 kN, and a = b = c = d = 2.6 m.

Determine the vertical reaction force at A. Let M = 120 kN·m, w = 20 kN/m, P = 160 kN, a = 5 m, b = 7 m, and c = 3 m.
