Beam Deflection and Stress Analysis Guide

The document contains 11 questions related to structural analysis and design of beams. The questions cover a range of topics including calculating deflection and slope at various points on beams with different loading and support conditions using concepts such as Macaulay's method, simple bending theory, and shear stress distribution. The beams have different cross-sectional shapes including rectangular, T-section, and I-section. Materials include cast iron and steel. Properties like moment of inertia, modulus of elasticity, and shear force values are provided to calculate stresses, deflections, and slopes.
