   A cantilever beam AB is fixed at left end A and free at B. The corresponding conjugate beam will supports ______.

   1. fixed at A and free at B
   2. free at A and simple support at B
   3. free at A and fixed at B
   4. simple supports at both A and B
   Show answer

   Answer: (3) free at A and fixed at B

   In the conjugate beam a fixed end (zero slope and deflection) becomes a free end, and a free end (with slope and deflection) becomes a fixed end. So a cantilever fixed at A and free at B has a conjugate beam free at A and fixed at B.
