SOLVED PROBLEM 8.18
A beam is simply supported at its ends over a span of 10 m and carries two concentrated loads of 100 kN and 60 kN at distances of 2 m and 5 m, respectively from the left support. Calculate (i) slope at the left support and (ii) slope and deflection under the 100 kN load. Assume EI = 36 × 104 kNm2 (Anna Univ., June 2006, ME).
Solution:
Given data: Span, l = 10, point load = 100 kN and 60 kN, EI = 36 × 104 kNm2.

Taking moments about A,
A section x − x in the last part of the beam (DB) at a distance x from A is ...
