Question
A steel girder of uniform section, $14\text{ metres}$ long is simply supported at its ends. It carries concentrated loads of $90\text{ kN}$ and $60\text{ kN}$ at two points $3\text{ metres}$ and $4.5\text{ metres}$ from the two ends respectively. Calculate :
(i) the deflection of the girder at the points under the two loads.
(ii) the maximum deflection.
Take $I = 64 \times 10^{-4}\text{ m}^4$ and $E = 210 \times 10^{-6}\text{ kN/m}^2$.
