Hi Jashan, 

Thank you for your answer, but then the b.draw() method uses a different 
sign criteria since in the sketch provided above if the moment is negative 
means counterclockwise which is the desired sense and if we introduce the 
moment positive the plot shows the moment in the clockwise direction as it 
is shown here:
