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.


Which one have more deflection hollow beam or solid beam?

solid beam have more deflection


What is the advantage and disadvantages of fixed beams?

There isn't really an advantage of having a fixed beam vs. a simply supported beam, it depends on what application the beam is for. If one of the design criteria of the beam is that it be able to deflect from one end to another then you are going to want to use a fixed beam. For example such applications could include a diving bored. A simply supported beam differs from a fixed beam because the beam is supported at both ends. Thus when a simply supported beam is loaded, the deflection will occur throughout the beam, since the ends are confined and will remain as they were. Furthermore on a fixed beam, (the end that is fixed) will have restrictive forces and moments keeping the end from moving.


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


What is the bending moment diagram for a simple supported beam with udl and a point load not in the centre of the span?

The answer is not formulatic. There will be a parabolic shape from the dead load and a discontinuity at the point load.

What are the different between simply supported restrained beam and simply supported unrestrained beam?

because the deflection in simple suported beam is more due to the orestriction at the ends as the ends are freely supported by twoo supports


What is the conclusion of the deflection of siply supported beam?

Q


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

How do you calculate transverse deflection?

Transverse deflection is typically calculated using a beam deflection formula, such as Euler-Bernoulli beam theory or Timoshenko beam theory. These formulas consider factors such as material properties, beam geometry, loading conditions, and boundary conditions to determine the amount of deflection at a specific point along the beam. Finite element analysis software can also be used to calculate transverse deflection for more complex beam configurations.

What the deflection beam?

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


If the maximum bending is maximumat a point what about the deflection?

If the maximum bending moment occurs at a point, then the corresponding deflection will also be maximum at that point. This is because the deflection of a beam is directly influenced by the bending moment acting on it. So, wherever the bending moment is greatest, the deflection will also be greatest.


Is beam balance a complex machine?

No, a beam balance is a simple machine. It consists of a beam supported at a balance point, with weights on each side used to determine the mass of an object by balancing the forces.
