The expression for deflection from Eqn. (1) is substituted in Eqn. (2); P is placed equal to
q dx dy and the result is integrated with respect to x from a1 to a2 ,and with respect to y
from b1 to b2 , the general term of the Equation of moment can be written as:

Deflection due to shaded area (Fig. 1) at point o is
w= w(a2,b2) - w(a1,b2)- w(a2,b1)+ w(a1,b1) (4)
Moment due to shaded area at point o is
M= M(a2,b2) - M (a1,b2) - M(a2,b1) + M(a1,b1) (5)
