Hi

Do this since that works fine:

So as we said use frictionless support on A and B.

Sym.: Z in XY face (face that is on the sy. plane) as said in the pdf.

Use Structural Steel material,

For the force it should be in neg. y, so – y direction (not pos.) . Use components x=z=0, y=-5000 N for bearing load and not vector. 

So the displacement should be down in – y (not up in pos. y)

With that we get the correct results.

All the best
