What are the shear force distribution (SFD) and bending moment diagram (BMD) for cantilever beams made of two different materials that are subjected to a point load P at the free end?

Question

Accepted Answer

SFD and BMD for cantilever beams of two different materials under point load P at free end

Calculate reactions at the fixed end of the beam
Determine the shear force at different points along the beam by considering the applied load and reactions
Draw the SFD by plotting the shear force values against the beam length
Calculate the bending moment at different points along the beam using the shear force values
Draw the BMD by plotting the bending moment values against the beam length
Consider the material properties (such as modulus of elasticity) to account for differences in beam behavior
