The deflection at any point, , along the span of a center loaded simply supported beam can be calculated using: [1] = for The special case of elastic deflection at the midpoint C of a beam, loaded at its center, supported by two simple supports is then given by: [ 1 ] δ C = F L 3 48 E I {\displaystyle \delta _{C}={\frac {FL^{3}}{48EI}}} where
Simply supported beam with a single eccentric concentrated load. An illustration of the Macaulay method considers a simply supported beam with a single eccentric concentrated load as shown in the adjacent figure. The first step is to find . The reactions at the supports A and C are determined from the balance of forces and moments as
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.
Euler–Bernoulli beam theory (also known as engineer's beam theory or classical beam theory) [1] is a simplification of the linear theory of elasticity which provides a means of calculating the load-carrying and deflection characteristics of beams. It covers the case corresponding to small deflections of a beam that is subjected to lateral ...
Simply supported beams: The displacement is zero at the locations of the two supports. The bending moment M x x {\displaystyle M_{xx}} applied to the beam also has to be specified. The rotation φ {\displaystyle \varphi } and the transverse shear force Q x {\displaystyle Q_{x}} are not specified.
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 ...
The following model applies to columns simply supported at each end ... According to Euler–Bernoulli beam theory, the deflection of a beam is related with its ...
Southwell Plot. Consider a simply supported beam under a compressive load P.The differential equation of equilibrium is + =, = where v o is the initial deflection, and the boundary conditions are
