Equivalent Nodal forces of a multiple loaded beam?
Equivalent Nodal forces of a multiple loaded beam?
(OP)
So i have to do the stair analysis by hand , And i couldn't find the equivalent nodal forces on the inclined beam

Is there a way to do that without cutting the beam to several parts?
If not, Is there a way to turn the point loads into uniformly distributed?
Edit: What i want is to find the reactions so i can do a Buckling analysis on the inclined member and design the transversal beam that holds them.

how to replace an array of uniformly pitched forces with an equivalent distributed load ... nP/L ?

Design the stair beam ?
Calculate the forces in the beam ( Moment Shear .... )
Calculate deflections.....
For a hand analysis it is usually easier using single point loads rather than distributed line loads

Are both supports fixed horizontally ??
if not then the system is statically determined and you can calculate support forces very easy by hand

Now that i think about it what should be the other support on the inclined beam if i wanted to isolate it for buckling check?.
Thank all for the help Guys :)
