Abstract

The "Rail-Unloading" Problem deals with a heavy beam of infinite or semi-infinite length, which is placed on both sides of a supporting point on planes with different levels. Analytical expressions for the contact lengths on both sides of the supporting point as well as for the maximum bending moment are presented.
