Deflection
Learning Objectives:

Calculate deflection in statically determinate beams and frames

Various Methods
• • • • Double Integration Method Moment-Area Method Elastic Load Method Conjugate Beam Method

Slope at A negative

Slope at B positive

Deflection at point B

Tangential deviation between points A and B

Change in slope

Change in slope and tangential deviation between points A and B

Moment-Area Method

Beam and moment curve

M/EI curve between points A and B

Moment Area Theorems
•The change in slope between any two points on a smooth continuous elastic curve is equal to the area under the M/EI curve between these points •The tangential deviation at a point B on a smooth continuous elastic curve from the tangent line drawn to the elastic curve at the second point A is equal to the moment about B of the area under the M/EI curve between these two points.

Moment-Area Method

Horizontal, therefore the vertical distance between tangent line and elastic curve are displacements

Cantilever, point of tangency at fixed support

Moment-Area Method

Symmetric members with symmetric loading, point of tangency at intersection of axis of symmetry and elastic curve

Moment-Area Method

Point of tangency at left end of member AB t BA L tan θ A = θ A in radians tan θ A =

θA=

t BA L

Caution 2.The theorem is applicable for continuous elastic curve 3.Presence of hinge breaks continuity of elastic curve 4.If hinge is present on beam or a frame – then work on either side of hinge (left or right side)

P 9.6 (3rd Edition)

Derive the equations for slope and deflection for the beam shown. Determine the slope at each support and value of deflection at mid span. Hint: Take advantage of symmetry; slope is zero at midspan.

P 9.13

Compute the slope at support A and the deflection at point B. Treat the rocker at D as a roller. Express the answers in terms of EI.

P 9.15 Determine the slop and deflection of point C

    The shear stress distributing in a beam depends on how Q/b varies as a function of y1. For a beam with a rectangular cross sectional area, subjected to a shear force V and a bending moment M. as a result of the bending moment a normal stress is developed on a cross section, which is compression above the neutral axis and it is tension below the neutral axis. To investigate the shear stress at a distance y1 above the neutral axis. Then dA=bdy, so equation 2 becomes…

    Deflections of a beam are important to be able predict the amount of deflection for a given loading situation. This experiment addresses determining the yield point for a material to fail, so the stress in the material does not have to reach to that point. This is where understanding beam deflection becomes a useful tool. This experiment is using beam deflection theory to evaluate and compare observed deflection per load values to theoretical values. Beam deflection experiment done by four parts. Part 1 -Simple Supported Bean, part 2-Cantilever Beam, part 3-The Principle of Superposition, and Part 4-Maxwell’s Reciprocity Theorem. For part 1 and 2 beam dimensions were recorded and are moment of inertia (I) was calculated using the following formula I=bh3/12.for part1, maximum permissible loads for mid-span and quarter-span were calculated. For part 2 maximum permissible loads for mid-span and end of the cantilever beam were calculated. For both parts different loads were applied and deflections were recorded. After calculating average modulus of elasticity for simple supported beam, which was approximately (-27.6*10^6 psi), it was compared to modulus of elasticity chart. The result indicates that the beam simple supported beam was made of Wrought iron. For cantilever beam, average modulus of elasticity were calculated, which was approximately (9148056.3), and compared with young’s modulus chart .the result indicate that cantilever beam was made of Aluminum. Part 3 reference point was chosen, single concentrated load at other point was applied and deflection was recorded at reference point. Same procedure was applied at another point on the beam and deflection was recorded at reference point. Finally, both loads were applied and deflection was recorded at the…
