Slope Deflection of Beams: y (Or Dy DX D 2 y EI dx2 D 3 y EI-dx3 D4y EI - dx4

The document summarizes relationships between loading, shearing force, bending moment, slope, and deflection of beams. It provides standard values for maximum slopes and deflections of simply supported beams assuming the beam is uniform with constant EI. Maximum slope is proportional to loading over EI, and maximum deflection is proportional to loading cubed over EI.

CHAPTER 5

SLOPE AND DEFLECTION OF BEAMS


Summary
The following relationships exist between loading, shearing force (S.F.), bending moment (B.M.), slope and deflection of a beam: deflection = y (or 6 ) dy slope = i or 0 = dx d2y bending moment = M = EI dx2 shearing force = Q = E I -d 3 y dx3 d4y loading = w = E I dx4 In order that the above results should agree mathematically the sign convention illustrated in Fig. 5.4 must be adopted. Using the above formulae the following standard values for maximum slopes and dejections of simply supported beams are obtained. (These assume that the beam is uniform, i.e. EI is constant throughout the beam.)
