Multiple choice

A three-span continuous beam has a internal hinge at B. Section B is at the mindspan of AC. Section R is at the midspan of CG. The 20 kN load is applied at section B whereas 10 kN loads are applied at sections D and F as shown in the figure. Span GH is subjected to uniformly distributed load of magnitude 5 kN/m. For the loading shown, shear force immediate to the right of section E is 9.84 kN upwards and the sagging moment at section E is 10.31 kN-m.

The magnitude of the shear force immediate to the left and immediate to the right of section B are, respectively

  1. 0 and 20 kN

  2. 10 kN and 10 kN

  3. 20 kN and 0

  4. 9.84 kN and 10.16 kN
