ever beam consists of two sections, the first is a straight section, AB, of length, L, and the second is a curved section, BC, with a radius of a. The elastic modulus, E, is constant. The beam has a rectangular cross-section of length b (width and height of the cross-section are both equal to b). Disregard the width of the beam and use centreline dimensions when making calculations.
