What is propped simply supported beam?

A cantilever beam is a beam which is fixed at one end ( no translation or rotation). A propped cantilever beam is a beam which is fixed at one end ( no translation or rotation) and simply supported ( no translation) at the other end. A cantilever beam is a beam which is fixed at one end ( no translation or rotation). A simply supported beam is a beam which is simply supported at both ends. A propped simply supported beam is a beam which is simply supported at both ends and simply supported at some other point such as at the center, to reduce deflection under load. Propped beams are statically indeterminate.


How much weight can a 6x6 steel i-beam support?

It depends on the type of beam, the material, whether it is a bridge span or cantilever, the allowable deflection and safety margin needed. We need a lot more data on the application.


How does deflection of a beam vary with moment of inertia?

Deflection is inversely proportional to moment of inertia, the larger the moment of inertia the smaller the deflection. Deflection is (with a simple centerloaded beam) is PL^3/48EI The various deflections are as follows: (i) for a simply supported beam with point load (center)=PL^3/48EI (ii) // // // UDL= 5PL^4/384EI (iii) for a cantilever with point load= PL^3/3EI (iv) // // with UDL= PL^4/8EI visit deflection calculator http://civilengineer.webinfolist.com/str/sdcalc.htm


What the deflection beam?

Deflection of beam means amount by which beam gets deflected from its original position.

What is the max length of cantilever beam?

What are the uses of cantilever beams in real life?

A cantilever beam is often used for making balconies in residential architecture. A cantilever beam is a beam that is supported only one of its ends while the open end can support a certain weight.


Why does a longer beam length mean greater deflection?

Deflection of beam depends upon load and length of beam. Larger the beam, larger will be it's selfweight
