Q) When a point load on the free end of a cantilever beam is increased, failure will occur

  • At the free end
  • At the fix end
  • In the middle of the beam.
  • At a distance 2l/3 from free end
Solution:

A cantilever beam subjected to point load on free end will have a maximum bending moment (M=PL) at the fixed end and the constant shear force (P) throughout the length. Therefore the maximum stress will be at the fixed end and failure will occur at that point.
