In this present paper, the dynamic analysis of nonprismastic beams subjected to moving concentrated forces is investigated at constant speed. Two cases of load- beam interaction problems described by the Dirac delta function with constant and harmonic magnitude mobile forces are studied. The technique called Galerkin’s method in conjunction with integral transform method was employed to solve the motion equation. From the numerical results, it is evidently seen that an increase in the foundation stiffness provides reduction on the beam deflection. And furthermore, the issue of resonance is closely monitored and observed to have reached earlier in constant magnitude than harmonic variable magnitude problem. Results presented in this work are useful in constructions engineering designs.
