For the shown beam, the governing equation for bending of beams reduces to (w(x)=0):
d EI dx 4 = 0

The deection along the beam can be determined by integrating the governing equation four times. Due to the point load, which cannot be described by w(x)=0, separate equations must be used to represent the deection in the two halves of the beam. The following expressions result: (x) = 1 (x) = (x) = 2 (x) =

To determine the values of the constants of integration a total of four boundary and four compatability conditions are required. Determine the boundary conditions for the beam. 1. 1 (0) = 0 2. M1 (0) = 0 EI1 (0) = 0 3. 2 (L) = 0 4. M2 (L) = 0 EI2 (L) = 0

The remaining four constants of integration are determined using compatibility conditions. Find and list these four compatibility conditions for this problem below.

Hint: You are looking at two geometric conditions and two equilibrium conditions at the transition between solution 1 and solution 2. Draw a free body diagram which includes the concentrated force and internal forces and moments from both parts of the solution to nd the latter 2 equations.

Determine the maximum deection of the beam due to this moment loading. This implies nding the location of max v. We need to nd the location of max deection, so set = 0 and solve for x in terms of L. We have two functions, and we dont necessarily know the location at the outset, so we need to look at both equations.
M 1 3 11 2 1 3 2 1 (x) = EIL ( 11 96 L x + 6 x ) 96 L x + 6 x = 0 This has no real roots so the max deection doesnt occur between 0 and L/4. M 1 2 3 2 (x) = EIL (1 6x 2x L + 35 2 96 L x

Solving this quadratic function gives x = (0.4796L,1.5204L). The max must be between 0 and L, so x = 0.4796L is the correct location.
L v2 (0.4796L) = 21M .286EI

Determine the reaction forces at points A and C due to this loading. Same FBDs as when nding the reactions in problem 1. RA = M L RB = V (L) = + M L
The support at point B can be replaced with the corresponding reaction force as shown below. However, since there is technically a support at point B we must also enforce that the support condition at point B is satised.
The principle of superposition can be used to represent this problem as the sum of the following two, previously solved problems as follows:
According to the principal of superposition the displacement of the beam is equal to the sum of the displacement of the beam in these two pictures. Use the support condition (boundary condition) at point B and your previous solutions to nd the support reaction RB . B =
