Beams II: Distributed Loads

This lecture covers beams with distributed loads, the computation of internal forces and moments, the relation between bending moment and shear force, and the matching conditions. It also discusses the computation of internal load diagrams, including normal force, shear force, and bending moment diagrams, as well as the method to calculate stress resultants. The lecture emphasizes the importance of understanding the equilibrium of beams under distributed loads and the relationship between internal forces. Various examples and diagrams are used to illustrate the concepts.
