DEFLECTIONS
It is the degree to which a structural element is displaced
under a certain loading either angle or distance
Deflections of structures can occur from various sources,
such as loads, temperature, fabrication errors, or settlement.
In design, deflections must be limited in order to provide
integrity and stability of roofs, and prevent cracking of
attached brittle materials such as concrete, plaster or glass.

DEFLECTIONS
The deflection of a structure is caused by its internal loadings such as normal
force, shear force, or bending moment. For beams and frames, however, the
greatest deflections are most often caused by internal bending, whereas
internal axial forces cause the deflections of a truss.
Being able to draw the deflection curve also helps engineers in locating the
steel needed to reinforce a concrete beam, column, or wall. Concrete is rather
weak in tension, so regions of a concrete structural member where tensile
stresses are developed are reinforced with steel bars, called reinforcing rods.
These rods prevent or control any cracking that may occur within these regions.

DOUBLE INTEGRATION METHOD


- Developed by Macaulay
- Also known as Macaulay’s Method
- Produces equation for the deflection everywhere along the beam
- The displacements and slopes are very small if the stressed are below the
elastic limit.

TIP:

- Make sure that the load is continuous on the cutting plane

- In determining the equation of the elastic curve (moment,


slope and deflection), if the value inside the parenthesis
becomes negative, the term will be neglected.
