A beam 2.4 m long is simply supported at two points A and B which are 1.44 m apart; point A is 0.36 m from the left-hand end of the beam and point B is 0.6 m from the right-hand end; the value of El for the beam is 240x10® Nmm². Find the slope at the supports due to a load of 2 kN applied at the mid-point of AB. Use the reciprocal theorem in conjunction with the above result to find the deflection at the mid-point of AB due to loads of 3 kN applied at each end of the beam. Ans. 0.011, 15.8 mm.

Beams

In structural engineering, a beam is a component made of a variety of materials (including steel alloys, and wood) that can resist loads applied laterally to the beam axis. Members, elements, rafters, shafts, and purlins are all terms used to describe beams.
