I solved it differently as for the equilateral triangular load, I said that 1/2(500lb/ft)(12ft) = 3000lb acting right in the middle of the beam since it is equally and symmetrically distributed along member AC

Why did you take 2 thirds of the distance instead of 1 third??

this video is PERFECT! thank you

[@marlonlopez1096]

great video i solved it myself, but wanted to confirms my answer.

My doctor told us we could split it into two parts using bar CD

[@keeganpetersen6928]

why did you split the 500 lb/ft load ? could you just use the full triangle since it is symetrical?

[@vibingwithchill676]

but how do you know there is a moment reaction at A?

Ur the GOAT!!!!
