Maximum bending moment and stress
Maximum bending moment and stress
(OP)
If a central concentrated load is applied mid span of a fixed end beam, then the maximum bending moment occurs at the centre and at the ends of the beam. If at these points moment is greater than the plastic moment, plastic hinges will form. Where will be the maximum stress? Will it be at the points where there are maximum bending moment where the plastic hinges form? Hence the midpoint and at the ends of the beam.

RE: Maximum bending moment and stress
question, can you apply more shear load onto a section that is fully plastic ? isn't a plastic hinge when the section has fully depended plasticity ? maybe it assumes the section is stressed to +ve and -ve yield stress so there's some room for extra load (or is it +ve and -ve ftu ?)
