Contact and Non-contact Hours This 5-unit course self-instructional manual is designed
for blended learning mode of instructional delivery
with scheduled face to face or virtual sessions. The
expected number of hours will be 90 including the face-
to-face or virtual sessions. The face-to-face sessions
shall include the summative assessment tasks (exams)
since this course is crucial in the licensure examination
for civil engineers.
Assessment Task Submission Submission of assessment tasks shall be on 3rd, 5th, 7th
and 9th week of the term. The assessment paper shall be
attached with a cover page indicating the title of the
assessment task (if the task is performance), the name
of the course coordinator, date of submission and name
of the student. The document should be emailed to the
course coordinator. It is also expected that you already
paid your tuition and other fees before the submission
of the assessment task.

If the assessment task is done in real time through the


features in the Blackboard Learning Management
System, the schedule shall be arranged ahead of time by
the course coordinator.

Since this course is included in the licensure


examination for civil engineers, you will be required to
take the Multiple-Choice Question exam inside the
University. This should be scheduled ahead of time by

your course coordinator. This is non-negotiable for all


licensure-based programs.
Turnitin Submission To ensure honesty and authenticity, all assessment
(if necessary) tasks are required to be submitted through Turnitin
with a maximum similarity index of 30% allowed. This
means that if your paper goes beyond 30%, the
students will either opt to redo her/his paper or explain
in writing addressed to the course coordinator the
reasons for the similarity. In addition, if the paper has
reached more than 30% similarity index, the student
may be called for a disciplinary action in accordance
with the University’s OPM on Intellectual and Academic
Honesty.

Please note that academic dishonesty such as cheating


and commissioning other students or people to
complete the task for you have severe punishments
(reprimand, warning, expulsion).
Penalties for Late The score for an assessment item submitted after the
Assignments/Assessments designated time on the due date, without an approved
extension of time, will be reduced by 5% of the possible
maximum score for that assessment item for each day
or part day that the assessment item is late.

However, if the late submission of assessment paper


has a valid reason, a letter of explanation should be
submitted and approved by the course coordinator. If
necessary, you will also be required to present/attach
evidences.
Return of Assignments/ Assessment tasks will be returned to you two (2) weeks
Assessments after the submission. This will be returned by email or
via Blackboard portal.

For group assessment tasks, the course coordinator will


require some or few of the students for online or virtual
sessions to ask clarificatory questions to validate the
originality of the assessment task submitted and to
ensure that all the group members are involved.
Assignment Resubmission You should request in writing addressed to the course
coordinator his/her intention to resubmit an
assessment task. The resubmission is premised on the
student’s failure to comply with the similarity index and
other reasonable grounds such as academic literacy
standards or other reasonable circumstances e.g.
illness, accidents financial constraints.
Re-marking of Assessment You should request in writing addressed to the program
Papers and Appeal coordinator your intention to appeal or contest the
score given to an assessment task. The letter should
explicitly explain the reasons/points to contest the
grade. The program coordinator shall communicate
with the students on the approval and disapproval of
the request.

3rd formative assessment – 10%

All culled from on-campus/onsite sessions (TBA):


Final exam – 40%

Submission of the final grades shall follow the usual


University system and procedures.
Preferred Referencing Style Depends on the discipline; if uncertain or inadequate,
use the general practice of the APA 6th Edition.
Student Communication You are required to create a umindanao email account
which is a requirement to access the BlackBoard
portal. Then, the course coordinator shall enroll the
students to have access to the materials and resources
of the course. All communication formats: chat,
submission of assessment tasks, requests etc. shall be
through the portal and other university recognized
platforms.

You can also meet the course coordinator in person


through the scheduled face to face sessions to raise
your issues and concerns.

For students who have not created their student email,


please contact the course coordinator or program
head.

course coordinator about the nature of his or her
special needs. Depending on the nature of the need, the
course coordinator with the approval of the program
coordinator may provide alternative assessment tasks
or extension of the deadline of submission of
assessment tasks. However, the alternative assessment
tasks should still be in the service of achieving the

Big Picture in Focus: ULO-8. develop a working knowledge and understanding


the deflection of beams using:

• Double Integration Method


• Double Integration Method using Bracket Function
• Moment-Area Method

Metalanguage

These are the frequent terms that you may encounter as you go along the course:

Deflection IIt is movement of a beam or node from its original position due
to the forces and loads being applied to the member.
Moment of Inertia It is a measure of how resistant an object is to changes in its
rotational motion.
Flexural Stress Stresses caused by the bending moment.

Essential Knowledge
In this chapter, we consider the deflection of statically determinate beams. Because the design of
beams is frequently governed by rigidity rather than strength, the computation of deflections is
an integral component of beam analysis:

• For example, building codes specify limits on deflections as well as stresses. Excessive
deflection of a beam not only is visually disturbing but also may cause damage to other
parts of the building.
• For this reason, building codes limit the maximum deflection of a beam to about 1/360th
of its span.

Deflections also play a crucial role in the analysis of statically indeterminate beams. They form
the bases for the compatibility equations that are needed to supplement the equations of
equilibrium, as we discovered in our analysis of axially loaded bars and torsion of shafts.

The two methods are:

• Method of Double integration


• Moment-Area Method

Double Integration Method Using Bracket Functions

Evaluating the constants of integration that arise in the double-integration method can
become very involved if more than two beam segments must be analyzed. We can simplify the
calculations by expressing the bending moment in terms of discontinuity functions, also known
as Macaulay bracket functions. Discontinuity functions enable us to write a single expression for
the bending moment that is valid for the entire length of the beam, even if the loading is
discontinuous. By integrating a single, continuous expression for the bending moment, we obtain
equations for slopes and deflections that are also continuous everywhere.

We cut the sections into three segments:

Note that in each successive segment an extra term is added to M, while the rest
of the expression remains unchanged. This pattern suggests using the expression:

Assumption:

• This expression, valid over the entire length of the beam, is called the global bending
moment equation for the beam. Its integrals, representing the slope and deflection of the
beam, are continuous functions.
• The double integration of the equation automatically assures continuity of deformation.
• If at the cut section, the load is discontinuous extend it and apply also the same magnitude
at the bottom of the beam.
• If the answer inside the bracket (𝑥 − 𝑎) is negative, then that is considered as zero
already.

Example 4a-3. The simply supported beam ABC in Fig. (a) carries a concentrated load of 300 N
as shown. Determine the equations for the slope and deflection of the beam using:

𝐸𝐼 = 20.48 𝑥 103 𝑁 − 𝑚2

a. Determine the deflection at 1 m from the leftmost support.


b. Determine the maximum deflection of the beam.

Moment-Area Method

The moment-area method is useful for determining the slope or deflection of a beam at a
specified location. It is a semi graphical method in which the integration of the bending moment
is carried out indirectly, using the geometric properties of the area under the bending moment
diagram. As in the method of double integration, we assume that the deformation is within the
elastic range, resulting in small slopes and small displacements.

above the tangent line drawn to the elastic
curve at A, and negative if B lies below the
tangent line.

Positive 𝜃𝐵/𝐴 has a counterclockwise direction,
