Are you struggling to understand how beams carry loads? Do you want to master beam reaction calculations and explore graphical methods of statics with clarity?
This course is designed for Engineering students, civil/structural learners, and working professionals who want to develop a solid understanding of beam reactions and graphic statics.
Through clear explanations, practical examples, and animated visuals, this course will help you:
Analyze simply supported beams under point loads, UDLs, and UVLs
Master graphical techniques like funicular polygons and force polygons
Develop the ability to cross-check analytical results using graphic methods
Lay the foundation for structural analysis and design
Analytical Calculation of Beam Reactions
- Beam with a single point load
- Beam with multiple point loads
- Beam with UDL and UVL
- Combined loading cases
It is very important to understand the types of loading & F.B.D. and calculate the beam reactions or support reactions for the same.
- Types of loading: Point load, UDL, UVL & combination of loadingFree Body Diagrams – Essentials
- Fundamentals of Graphic Statics
- Introduction to Force Polygon and Funicular Polygon
- Rules and tools for graphic statics
- Step-by-step drawing techniques
- Graphic Statics Applied to Beams
- Graphical method for point-loaded beams
- Graphical method for beams with UDL
- Graphic statics for complex load combinations
