2-A timber beam of rectangular section has a span of 4.8 meters and is simply
supported at its ends. It is required to carry a load of 45kN uniformly distributed
over the whole span. Find the values of the breadth (b) and depth (d) of the beam,
if maximum bending stress is not to exceed 7Mpa and maximum deflection is
limited to 9.5 mm.Take E for timber as 10.5 Gpa. Use double integration method.
3- Find the slope at A, C and D and deflection at B and D of the beam given below.
EI constant. Use Macaulays method.
