Extracted text: A beam ABCDEF is 10 m long and is supported at points B and E which are 2 m and 9 m respectively from A towards the left-hand end. The beam carries a concentrated load of 10 kN at A, a concentrated load of W kN at C, which is 5 m from A, and a concentrated load of 16 kN at D which is 4 m from point F. In addition a beam carries a uniformly distributed load of 4 kN/m from A to C and uniformly distributed load of 3 kN/m from D to F.
