Answer should be B as shear force is minimum at the center. Any drawing also suggests that if you google it.

The Answer is D. Because for a simply supported UDL beam shear force is zero at centre and max at ends.

@Louis.

If shear force is zero at the centre then why spacing of stirrups will increased at centre.

Abhinandan said: 6 years ago

Spacing is more at centre an less at end. Read question carefully.

Utsav said: 7 years ago

Stirrups are for resisting shear & torsion thus answer is D.

Yubraj Joshi said: 5 years ago

Spacing is Maximum at the centre. So the answer is D.

Kamlesh said: 8 years ago

Spacing increases at centre not the stirrups.
