7.Double Integration Method
7 Part 1
The first integration y' yields the slope of the elastic curve and the
second integration y gives the deflection of the beam at any distance
x. The resulting solution must contain two constants of integration
since EI y" = M is of second order. These two constants must be
evaluated from known conditions concerning the slope deflection at
certain points of the beam. For instance, in the case of a simply
supported beam with rigid supports, at x = 0 and x = L, the
deflection y = 0, and in locating the point of maximum deflection, we
simply set the slope of the elastic curve y' to zero.

Problem 1. Compute the value of EI δ at midspan for the beam
loaded as shown below. If E = 10 GPa, what value of I is required to
limit the midspan deflection to 1/360 of the span?
