The intensity applied to beam AB is increased by a factor of 2. (i.e. your answer for the ntensity magnitude , obtained in part (a) will be doubled and applied to beam AB). Calculate the maximum deflection of point B for this new load case. You can assume that the contact force between the two beams can be represented as a concentrated point load.

Question
Value of Wo= 15 N/mm
Two prismatic beams with identical cross-sections are fabricated from steel and arranged as shown in
the diagram below. The beams (AB and CD) have different lengths with the magnitude stated in Table
3. Due to the arrangement of the beams, there is an initial gap, A, separating the beams. The gap is
present before any load has been applied to the beams.
