Approach :
•Modify the area load to a linear load.
•Determine the moment of inertia and the moment equations for both beam sections.
•Identify the boundary conditions.
•Integrate the moment equations to find the deflection equations.
The deflection at the beam tip can be determined by first

Moment Equation and Diagram
To determine beam deflections is to integrate the moment
equation. This requires that the moment equation is known
before starting the integration. This can be done by cutting
each beam section and developing a moment equation as a
function of the beam location, x.
For the cantilever beam, there are two sections, the first one
is from point A to B and the second is from point B to C.

Solution Partially Loaded Beam
There are two basic ways to solve this problem using integration. First, the moment in
both beam sections, AB and BC, can be determined, and then integrated using two
boundary conditions for each span.

extrapolate the deflection from B to C This is possible since there are no loads on the

Due to symmetry, each of the two supports will carry half

cutting the span at distance x from the left, and
summing moments. This gives,

When constructing moment‐shear diagrams it was
noticed that there is a relationship between the moment

The basic types of b.c are shown below. Those conditions that require two sections are sometimes
called continuity conditions instead of b.c. For example, a point force on a beam causes the
deflections to be split into two equations. However, the beam's deflection and slope will be
continuous at the load location requiring y1 = y2 and y´1 = y´2. Also, the shear difference will equal
the applied point load at that location, and the moment will be equal in both beam sections at that
point, M1 = M2. These conditions are needed to solve for the additional integration constants.

Final Deflection Equations
The final deflection equations for both beam
sections are
y1 = ‐3.704×10‐9x4 + 0.003652x ‐ 0.2119 mm
y2 = ‐1.2×10‐7x3 + 9.0×10‐6x2 + 0.0018x ‐ 0.15 mm
The maximum deflection at the tip (x = 0) is
yx=0 = ‐0.2119 mm
This is the same (within rounding error) of the
previous solution. (yxx=00 = ‐0.2120 mm) Final Deflection Curve
Example
A beam is constructed where one end
cannot deflect (pinned joint), but can
rotate, and the other end cannot rotate, but
can deflect..

Determine the deflection equation by
integrating from the loading function. Shelf Supports and Loading
Solution
Starting with the loading function, the
deflection can be found by integrating it four
ti
times. However, this will require four unique
H thi ill i f i
boundary conditions. Those four conditions are
1. θ(x=L) = y'(x=L) = 0
2. y(x=0) = 0
33. M(x=0) = y''(x=0) = 0

4. V(x=L) = y'''(x=L) = 0 Equivalent beam deflections

g
The loading is a constant distributed load, or
EI y'''' = ‐w
Integration this gives the shear function,
V(x) = EIy''' = ‐wx + C1
The 4th boundary condition can be used to determine the integration constant, C1,
V(x=L) = ‐wL + C1 = 0
C1 = wL
Integrating again gives the moment equation,
M(x) EIy wx2/2 + xwL + C2
M(x) = EIy'' = ‐wx
The 3rd boundary conditions gives,
0 = ‐w 02/2 + x 0 L + C2
C2 = 0
0
Thus, the final moment equation is
M(x) = ‐wx2/2 + xwL

Next, this equation can be integrated to give the rotation equation,
hi i b i d i h i i
θ(x) = EIy' = ‐wx3/6 + wLx2/2 + C3
Using boundary condition 1 gives,
0 = ‐wL3/6 + wL3/2 + C3
C3 = ‐wL3/3
q
The final rotation equation is, ,
θ(x) = EIy' = ‐wx3/6 + wLx2/2 ‐ wL3/3
The deflection equation is just the integral of the rotation equation,
EIy = ‐wx4/24 + wLx3/6 ‐ wL3x/3 + C4
Applying the last unused boundary conditions, number 2, gives,
0 = ‐ 0 + 0 ‐ 0 + C4 ==> C4 = 0
