Abstract

Calculation of the deflections and rotations of loaded beams using Macaulay's method of successive integration • Treatment of concentrated loads, uniformly distributed loads covering all or part of the span and couples • Calculation of the position and magnitude of the maximum deflection • Beams simply supported at either end, simply supported beams with cantilevered ends, cantilevered beams.
