BEAM FORMULAS WITH SHEAR AND MOMENT DIAGRAMS

The American Wood Council (AWC) is part of the wood products group of the American Forest & Paper Association (AF&PA). AF&PA is the national trade association of the forest, paper, and wood products industry, representing member companies engaged in growing, harvesting, and processing wood and wood fiber, manufacturing pulp, paper, and paperboard products from both virgin and recycled fiber, and producing engineered and traditional wood products. For more information see www.afandpa.org.

While every effort has been made to insure the accuracy of the information presented, and special effort has been made to assure that the information reflects the state-ofthe-art, neither the American Forest & Paper Association nor its members assume any responsibility for any particular design prepared from this publication.

Notations Relative to “Shear and Moment Diagrams”

Intr oduction Introduction Figures 1 through 32 provide a series of shear and moment diagrams with accompanying formulas for design of beams under various static loading conditions. Shear and moment diagrams and formulas are excerpted from the Western Woods Use Book, 4th edition, and are provided herein as a courtesy of Western Wood Products Association.
