Macaulay's method Article Talk sb Ww F Macaulay's method (the double integration method) is a technique used in structural analysis to determine the deflection of Euler- Bernoulli beams. Use of Macaulay's technique is very convenient for cases of discontinuous and/or discrete loading. Typically partial uniformly distributed loads (u.d.I.) and uniformly varying loads (u.v.I.) over the span and a number of concentrated loads are conveniently handled using this technique. The first English language description of the method was by Macaulay.'"! The actual approach appears to have been developed by What is the crippling load?
