STEP 1. TAKE MOMENT AT A TO GET THE REACTION D.

∑ 𝑀𝐴 = 0

𝑅𝐷(15) = 1.5(6)(3) + 30(10)

𝑅𝐷 = 21.8 𝑘𝑖𝑝𝑠.
THEN TAKE MOMENT AT D TO GET REACTION A.

∑ 𝑀𝐷 = 0

𝑅𝐴(15) = 1.5(6)(12) + 30(5)

𝑅𝐷 = 17.2 𝑘𝑖𝑝𝑠.
STEP 2. DRAW THE ELASTIC CURVE THAT WILL PROJECT THE
DEFLECTION AT A CERTAIN POINT. CONSIDERING THE 3 ft. DISTANCE
AWAY FROM POINT A WE WILL BE CONSIDERING THE TANGENTIAL
REFERENCE AT POINT D, WHICH GIVES AS THE TANGENTIAL
DEVIATION OF POINT A THROUGH POINT D.
STEP 3. DRAW THE BENDING MOMENT DIAGRAM BY PARTS
 A CONCENTRATED LOAD 17.2 kips. UPWARD, WHICH PRODUCED
TRIANGULAR MOMENT AND A DISTANCE OF 3 ft. AWAY FROM
THE REFERENCE POINT.
 17.2(2) =51.6
 A TWO DISTRIBUTED LOAD THAT BEEN SEPERATED BY THE
REFERENCE POINT, 1.5 kips. DOWNWARD WHICH GIVES US A 2°
SPADREL MOMENT WITH A DISTANCE OF 3 ft.
1.5(3)2
 = 6.75

 A POINT LOAD 30 kips DOWNWARD THAT WILL PRODUCED A
TRIANGULAR MOMENT AND WITH A DISTANCE OF 7 ft. FROM RP.
 30(7) =210
 A POINT LOAD UPWARD 21.8 kips WHICH GIVES US A
TRIANGULAR MOMENT WITH A DISTANCE OF 12 ft. FROM RP.
 21.8(12) =261.6
