Moment-Area theorems
✘ Theorem 1
○ The change in slope between any 2 points on the elastic
curve equals the area of the M/EI diagram between the
2 points
✘ The second moment-area theorem is based on the relative
derivation of tangents to the elastic curve
✘ Shown in Fig 8.12(c) is a greatly exaggerated view of the
vertical deviation dt of the tangents on each side of the
differential element, dx

Moment-Area theorems
✘ Theorem 2
○ The vertical deviation of the tangent at a point (A) on
the elastic curve wrt the tangent extended from another
point (B) equals the “moment” of the area under the
M/EI diagram between the 2 points (A & B)
○ This moment is computed about point A where the
derivation is to be determined
