DEFLECTION OF
BEAMS
DEFLECTION OF BEAMS
When a beam with a straight longitudinal axis is loaded by lateral forces, the axis
is deformed into a curve, called the deflection curve of the beam. Deflection is the
displacement in the y direction of any point on the axis of the beam. See Figure 5.1
below.

•The calculation of deflections is an important
part of structural analysis and design.
• Deflections are essential for example in the
analysis of statically indeterminate structures
and in dynamic analysis, as when investigating
the vibration of aircraft or response of buildings
to earthquakes.
• Deflections are sometimes calculated in
order to verify that they are within tolerable
limits.
5.1 RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN LOADING, SHEAR
FORCE, BENDING MOMENT, SLOPE AND
DEFLECTION.
Consider a beam AB which is initially horizontal when unloaded. If it deflects to
a new position A ‘ B’ under load, the slope at any point C is:
i = dy/dx
Basic Differential Equation For Deflection
This is usually very small in practice, and for small curvatures:
ds = dx = R di (Figure 5.2).
di/dx = 1/R
But i = dy/dx
Therefore: d2
y/dx2
= 1/R ……………….. (1)
Now from simple bending theory: M/I = E/R
1/R = M/EI
Therefore substituting in equation (1):
M = E I d2
y/dx2 ……………………………….
(2)
This is the basic differential equation for the deflection of beams.

• In Some cases, it is not convenient to commence the integration
procedure with the bending moment equation since this may be
difficult to obtain. In such cases, it is often more convenient to
commence with the equation for the loading at the general point XX
of the beam. A typical example follows:

Macaulay’s Method
•The Macaulay’s method involves the
general method of obtaining slopes
and deflections (i.e. integrating the
equation for M) will still apply
provided that the term, W (x – a) is
integrated with respect to (x – a)
and not x.

Mohr’s Area-Moment Method
•The Mohr area-moment procedure can be
summarised as:
•If A and B are two points on the deflection curve of
a beam, EI is constant and B is a point of zero slope,
then the Mohr’s theorems state that:
•(1) Slope at A = 1/EI x area of B.M. diagram
between A and B
•(2) Deflection at A relative to B = 1/EI x first moment
of area of B.M diagram between A and B about A.
