SITUATION: A simply supported beam 4m long, carries a 300 N/m load its first half of the span only. Use E = 10x103 MPa and midspan deflection is limited to 1/360 of the span. Determine the following: maximum allowable deflection at the midspan, Ymid = mm (2 decimals, absolute value) El deflection at midspan of the described beam, El Ymid = N-m3 (2 decimals, absolute value) x106 4 required least moment of inertia in order not to exceed the allowable deflection, I = mm² (one decimal only, absolute value)

MIDSPAN DEFLECTION IN A SIMPLY SUPPORTED BEAM
(Use the Moment Area Method technique discussed for this topic. Note that for every load in the span, partner
it with a same load to make the beam symmetrically loaded. This process doubles the midspan deflection of
the given original beam.)
