with a concentrated load in the span.
2. A beam AB of 4m span beam is simply supported at the ends and is
loaded as shown in figure. Determine by macaulay’s method:
a. Deflection at C
b. Max. deflection
c. Slope at end A, E=200 X 106 kN/m2, I= 20 X 10=6m4

3. Calculate the deflection under C and D using macaulay’s method. E=2.1 X


104 kN/cm2, I= 16 X 103 cm4

4. A simply supported beam of span 6m with an overhang of length 2m on


both sides is loaded at 1m from the free ends with a concentrated load
of 20kN each, besides udl of 5kN/m in the middle third of the span.
Calculate the deflection of mid span using macaulay’s method.
