Question 87
XE-DNAT2 marksNeeds review
The figure shows two identical mass-less beams AB and CD, each clamped at one of their ends. The left end of beam CD rests on the right end of beam AB such that the ends of the beams are just in contact. The beams are unstressed before the application of load. Assume no friction at the contact. Now, if a uniformly distributed load of 800 N/m is applied on beam CD, the bending moment at the end B of beam AB in N.m is __________ (rounded off to the nearest integer)
