Transcribed Image Text:**Problem 7.26**
Use the virtual work method to determine the deflection at point \( C \) of the beam shown.
The diagram provided illustrates a beam supported at two points, A and D. The beam is subject to two downward forces: a 200 kN force at point B and a 100 kN force at point C. The distances on the beam are divided as follows: from A to B is 5 meters, from B to C is 10 meters, and from C to D is 5 meters.
- \( E \) (Young's Modulus) is given as a constant value of 250 GPa.
- \( I \) (Moment of Inertia) is \( 600 \times 10^6 \) mm\(^4\).
**Explanation of the Diagram:**
- **Supports:** There are two types of supports shown. At point A, there is a fixed support, suggested by a triangular symbol, and at point D, there is a roller support, indicated by a semicircular symbol.
- **Forces:** Vertical arrows denote forces acting downward at specific points (B and C) on the beam.
The task involves using the principles of virtual work to calculate how much point C deflects under the given loading conditions.
