Practice Question: Calculating Bending Moment in Simple Beam

NCEES Civil PE Specification Structural Mechanics: Statics and stresses (e.g., bending, shear, axial, combined, deflection)


Problem

The approximate bending moment (\(kip-in\)) at a location 8 feet from the R1 support in a \(24\ ft\) simple span beam (shown in figure) under a uniform load of \(2\ kip/ft\) is:
