A fixed-end beam is subjected to a concentrated load ($P$) as shown in the figure. The beam has two different segments having different plastic moment capacities ($M_P, 2...

A prismatic beam (as shown below) has plastic moment capacity of $M_p$, then the collapse load $P$ of the beam is$\dfrac{2M_p}{L} \\$$\dfrac{4M_p}{L} \\$$\dfrac{6M_p}{L} ...
