3 POINT BENDING BEAM

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hello,
can anyone help me in how to do simple 3 point bend of a beam with discrete supports?
How can I define a central load in a beam in order to find simple displacement of a centered concentrated load?
SHould I use 2d beam or 3d solid block?
How can I apply the load in the middle of the beam as I do not have node in my beam surface except in the edges of the rectangle.

Kind Regards,
Maria
