Question
Find the deflection at midspan using a W10X45:

Transcribed Image Text:### Problem Statement:
#### Task:
**5-2.2-1: Find the deflection at midspan using a W10X45.**
### Diagram Explanation:
- The diagram depicts a beam subjected to different loads and supports.
- The beam is fixed at one end (left side) and supported by a roller at the other end (right side, point B).
- The beam has a total length of 15 feet.
- A uniformly distributed load of 0.5k/ft acts along the length of the beam.
- Additionally, a point load of 10k is applied at a point that is 10 feet from the left end.
### Required Calculation:
- Calculate the deflection at the midpoint of the beam using the specs of a W10x45 beam.
