A 4-meter cantilever beam supports a uniformly distributed load of w=25 kN/m at half of its span; located at 2 m. The beam is I-shaped, in cross-section and has the dimensions as shown in the attached image. Here, EI is constant for the beam. Please help me in determining the following; (a) What will the deflected shape of the beam look like due to loading? (b) What is the equation of the elastic curve for the cantilever beam? (c) What is the deflection at point B? Thank you in advance for your help :)
