Shear force and bending moment diagrams show internal forces and moments in a fixed beam.
Shear force diagram shows the variation of shear force along the length of the beam.
Bending moment diagram shows the variation of bending moment along the length of the beam.
At supports of a fixed beam, shear force is maximum and bending moment is zero.
At midspan of a fixed beam, bending moment is maximum and shear force is zero.
Reinforcement of a cantilever beam is positioned at the bottom to resist tension forces.
Reinforcement is placed at the bottom of the cantilever beam to resist tension forces.
