Constructing the shear diagram

Considering the segment
from $x = 10 m$ to $x = 10 m$

     area under load
                diagram $= 0.00 k N$
         concentrated
                   forces $= + 6.00 k N$
     total shear force
                  change $= + 6.00 k N$

         at $x = 10 m$ ,    $V = - 6.00 k N$
     total shear force
                 change         $= + 6.00 k N$
          at $x = 10 m,$ $V = 0.00 k N$
