The simply supported beam consists of a W14 × 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 w0 = 7 kips/ft, wCD = 5.5 kips/ft, LAB = 8.5 ft, LBC = 8.5 ft, LCD = 12.0 ft, LDE = 5 ft.
The simply supported beam consists of a W14 ×
34 structural steel wide-flange shape [E =
29,000 ksi; 1 = 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 = 7 kips/ft, wcD = 5.5
kips/ft, LAB = 8.5 ft, LBc = 8.5 ft, LCD = 12.0 ft,LDE
