Deflection

Given: the beam cross-section shown have the following cross-sectional properties 

f'c = 4000 psi 

n = 8 

Find Instantaneous Deflection. 

**McCormac Problem 6.7**

The diagram shows a beam fixed at one end and subjected to different loads. 

- The fixed beam has a uniform distributed load (\(w_D\)) of 1.5 kips per foot along its length.
- Two point loads (\(P_L\)) are applied at specific positions: one \(P_L = 20\) kips at 10 feet from the fixed end, and another \(P_L = 10\) kips at the other end, 20 feet from the fixed point.

On the right side:

- There is a cross-sectional view of the beam with the following details: 
  - 6 #9 bars
  - Total height of 34 inches
  - Inner height of 31.5 inches
  - Top portion of 2.5 inches
  - Width of 24 inches

The formula for deflection, \( \Delta \), is given by:

\[
\Delta = \frac{Pb^2}{6EI}(3l - b)
\]

Where the problem specifically mentions calculating the deflection for \(P = 20\) kips and \(b = 10\) feet.
