to each of the loads acting individually on the beam. The slope and
deflection due to each individual load can be computed by using either
the direct integration method described previously or one of the other
methods discussed in subsequent sections. Also, many structural engi-
neering handbooks (e.g., Manual o/ Steel Construction published by the
American Institute of steel Construction) contain deflection formulas for
beams for various types of loads and support conditions, which can be
used for this purpose. Such formulas for slopes and deflections of beams
for some common types of loads and support conditions are given inside
the front cover of this book for convenient reference.

Equation (6.12) represents the mathematical expression of the first
moment-area fheorem, which can be stated as follows:
The change in slope betweeu the tangents to the elastic curve at any two
points is equal to the area under the MIEI diagtam between the two points,
provided that the elastic cur¡e is continuous between the two points.

Elustit' Curue The elastic curve for the beam is showu in Fig. 6.5(d). Note that because the M IEI diagram is neg-
ative, the beam bends concave downward. Since the support at ,4 is fixed, the slope at A is zero (fu:0); that is, the
tangent to the elastic curve at I is horizontal. as shown in the figure.
Slope at B With the slope at I known, we can determine the slope at B by evaluating the change in slope Lat be-
tween ,4 and ,B (which is the angle between the tangents to the elastic curve at points I and B. as shown in Fig. 6.5(d)).
According to the first moment-area theorem. 0 BA : area ol the M I EI diagram between A and B. This area can be con-

From Fig.6.5(d), we can see that because the tangent at I is horizontal (in the direction of the undeformed axls of
