1. The cantilever beam shown in figure Q1 has a point load of 3 kN applied at a point 8 m away from the support. The El coefficient of the beam is 32 MNm. (a) Determine the bending moment along the beam. [3 marks] (b) By integrating the above bending monient, find the vertical deflection at the point [10 marks] (5 marks] where the load is applied. (c) Find the vertical deflection at the free end of the beam. KN 8 m x x 4 m Figure Q1 2. The 5 m long cantilever beam shown in figure Q2 has a point load of 3 kN applied at its free end. Following the application of this load, the vertical downwards deflection of point A, 2m to the right of the support, is measured and found to be 1 mm. (a) Determine the El coefficient of the beam.
