Reference for Loading Diagrams and Formulas

Reference for Loading Diagrams and Formulas

Reference for Loading Diagrams and Formulas

(OP)
Does anyone have a source that has loading diagrams and formulas for Shear, Moment, Deflection that I can take to the PE?  The 13th edition is limited and of course the practice problems do not give examples where you can use a formula from the 13th edition easily.

RE: Reference for Loading Diagrams and Formulas

I think PCI has some that AISC doesn't.  The only one that jumps to mind is a beam with end moments (obviously for camber).

I'll be interested in this thread as I wouldn't mind having some additional reference for odd loading conditions for the exam on Friday.

RE: Reference for Loading Diagrams and Formulas

AISC 13th is my go-to resource.  PCI has some too, but they're mostly the same other than end moments as SEIT mentioned.  I remember a while ago trying to find additional formulas online and not having much luck.  If anyone can post this information, it would be appreciated!

Either way, I'd recommend practicing figuring out V, M, and Deflection at any point using diagrams and/or equations.  You're bound to come up with something on the test that you don't have a shortcut equation for.

ishvaaag,

Thank you for sharing these....this is great!  At first it is a little confusing because the moment diagrams are drawn opposite from what I'm typically used to.  It should be helpful though.  I do wish I could find one in English and what I'm used to seeing, but at this point I'll take what I can get.  This is a great listing of numerous amounts of diagrams.

RE: Reference for Loading Diagrams and Formulas

ishvaag - the two files appear to be identical.
