Answer to Question #159241 in Mechanical Engineering for Saiful

Question

A simply supported beam ABCD is subjected to a uniform distributed load along AB

and CD as shown in Figure Q2. The properties of the beam are: E = 70 GPa and INA = 3010

6 mm4

. Determine the deflection of the beam at point B. Next, change the pin support at point A to a fixed support. Develop the slope and

deflection functions.
