Question

Please use conjugate beam method

A beam is subjected to a single concentrated load of maganitude P. The beam span length is Land it is fixed at both ends and has a constant EI value. The concentrated load is applied at a distance of a from the left support (Point A) and a distance b from the right support (Point B) Determine the reaction forces at both ends. Use the conjugate beam method to solve for the unknown reaction forces. Cut the structure back at End A and apply unknown reaction forces RA and Ma. Finally, express the member end moments as Ma and MB, and the reaction forces as RA and RB. Simplify the expressions as much as possible in terms of P, a, b, L, and EI. Hint: When solving for the unknown member end forces Ma and RA, it is simpler to solve first for MA.
