A summary of the most important formulas, equations & diagrams. This Structural Design Cheatsheet covers the engineering formulas and equations I use regularly as a structural engineer. It’s a “short” summary of many of the blog posts we published on structuralbasics.com. While this document covers many important formulas, be aware that ...
Beam Overhanging Both Supports – Unequal Overhangs – Uniformly Distributed Load. Beam Fixed at Both Ends – Uniformly Distributed Load. Beam Fixed at Both Ends – Concentrated Load at Center. Beam Fixed at Both Ends – Concentrated Load at Any Point. Continuous Beam – Two Equal Spans – Uniform Load on One Span.
Establish the M and x axes and plot the values of the moment at the ends of the beam. Shear and Moment Diagrams. – Since dM/dx = V, the slope of the moment diagram at any point is equal to the intensity of the shear at the point.

Example: Draw the shear and moment diagrams for the following frame: by Superposition. We have learned how to construct a moment diagram from either writing the moment as a function of x or from the slope relationship with the shear diagram.
