Engineers must calculate deflection to prevent excessive bending that could damage the beam or surrounding components or make the structure unsafe.We’ll cover five common methods for calculating ...

In this video I take a look at five methods that can be used to predict how a beam will deform when loads are applied to it.

Beam #3 The deflection at B and C is zero, as prescribed by the BCs. With the fixed condition at B, the slope at B is also zero. There are no constraints on the slope of the displacement at C. Note ...
