Moving Loads and Influence Lines
ANALYSIS OF BEAM CARRYING MOVING
CONCENTRATED LOADS
The loads shown in Fig. 47a traverse a beam of 40-ft (12.2-m) simple span while their
spacing remains constant. Determine the maximum bending moment and maximum shear
induced in the beam during transit of these loads. Disregard the weight of the beam.
