  2. Slope deflection method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slope_deflection_method

    The slope deflection method is a structural analysis method for beams and frames introduced in 1914 by George A. Maney. [1] The slope deflection method was widely used for more than a decade until the moment distribution method was developed. In the book, "The Theory and Practice of Modern Framed Structures", written by J.B Johnson, C.W. Bryan ...

  3. Airy points - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airy_points

    A beam supported at its Airy points has parallel ends. Vertical and angular deflection of a beam supported at its Airy points. Supporting a uniform beam at the Airy points produces zero angular deflection of the ends. [2] [3] The Airy points are symmetrically arranged around the centre of the length standard and are separated by a distance equal to

  4. Deflection (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deflection_(engineering)

    The maximum elastic deflection on a beam supported by two simple supports, loaded at a distance from the closest support, is given by: [1] = / where F {\displaystyle F} = force acting on the beam L {\displaystyle L} = length of the beam between the supports

  5. Conjugate beam method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conjugate_beam_method

    (0) real beam, (1) shear and moment, (2) conjugate beam, (3) slope and displacement The conjugate-beam methods is an engineering method to derive the slope and displacement of a beam. A conjugate beam is defined as an imaginary beam with the same dimensions (length) as that of the original beam but load at any point on the conjugate beam is ...

  6. Moment-area theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moment-Area_Theorem

    The moment-area theorem is an engineering tool to derive the slope, rotation and deflection of beams and frames. This theorem was developed by Mohr and later stated namely by Charles Ezra Greene in 1873.

  7. Shear and moment diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_and_moment_diagram

    Shear and Bending moment diagram for a simply supported beam with a concentrated load at mid-span. Shear force and bending moment diagrams are analytical tools used in conjunction with structural analysis to help perform structural design by determining the value of shear forces and bending moments at a given point of a structural element such as a beam.

  8. Beam (structure) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beam_(structure)

    In engineering, beams are of several types: [2] Simply supported – a beam supported on the ends which are free to rotate and have no moment resistance. Fixed or encastré (encastrated) – a beam supported on both ends and restrained from rotation. Overhanging – a simple beam extending beyond its support on one end.

  9. Direct integration of a beam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_integration_of_a_beam

    Simply supported beam with a constant 10 kN per meter load over a 15m length. Take the beam shown at right supported by a fixed pin at the left and a roller at the right. There are no applied moments, the weight is a constant 10 kN, and - due to symmetry - each support applies a 75 kN vertical force to the beam. Taking x as the distance from ...
