The simply supported beam consists of a W14 x 34 structural steel wide-flange shape [E = 29,000 ksi; I = 340 in.4). For the loading shown, use discontinuity functions to compute (a) the slope of the beam at E and (b) the deflection of the beam at C. Assume wo = 13 kips/ft, wcD = 5.5 kips/ft, LAB = 6.5 ft, LBC = 6.5 ft, LcD = 9.5 ft, LDE = 4 ft. WO WCD x A B с D E LAB I LBC LCD LDE Answer: (a) De = 0.0134 rad (b) vc= -0.7757 . in.
