This 3-page document discusses beams that are supported by an elastic foundation, such as a beam resting on a bed of springs or on soil. It describes how the flexibility of the foundation affects the beam's deflection and stresses compared to a beam with a rigid foundation. The equations for calculating a beam's deflection and bending moment when supported by an elastic foundation are also provided.
