One of the beams that supports a balcony is shown. To design a beam for this purpose, it is common to use a uniformly distributed load that includes the dead loads (e.g., weight of materials) and live loads (e.g., weight of a large but reasonable number of people distributed over the balcony). If the uniformly distributed load is 2500 N/m, de­termine the shear and moment as functions of position, and draw the shear and moment diagrams. Idealize the supports at B and C to be a roller and pin, respectively.
