A uniform beam is to be picked up by crane cables attached at Aand B. Determine the distance a from the ends of the beam to thepoints where the cables should be attached if the maximum absolutevalue of the bending moment in the beam is to be as small as pos-sible. (Hint: Draw the bending-moment diagram in terms of a, L,and the weight per unit length w, and then equate the absolute valuesof the largest positive and negative bending moments obtained.)
