RECTANGULAR DISTRIBUTIVE LOAD

[Anonymous]

I'm having a very difficult time picturing in my mind's eye an example of such.
I need something like this: Take for example the Edison light bulb's threads, we say there isn't a whole lot of definition to these threads verses the threads on a fastener used to hold a trigger in place on a shotgun. This is easy for me to see. Please convey to me an easy-to-relate-to example of a rectangular distributive load. Thank you.

Hi Timothy,

You don't have to post repeatedly. Maybe the browser has an issue. Posting repeatedly is not necessary. Also, please refrain from using all capital letters in title or content. It is considered offensive.

If I understood your request correctly, it sounds like pressure load. The load is evenly distributed along the surface. The magnitude of the load is the same. It looks like a rectangle. Another typical distributed load is triangular distributed load. The load starts from the maximum value from one side to minimum value on the other (zero).

Many thanks!

Without context (do you have an assembly or picture?) this could have many different answers.

Here is one possible example.
