Mechanics and Structural Analysis

Direction: Consider a propped cantilever beam ABC under two loads of magnitude P each as shown in the figure below. Flexural rigidity of the beam is EI.

  1. The rotation at B is
    1. 5PLa
      (clockwise)
      16EI
    2. 5PLa
      (anticlockwise)
      16EI
    3. 59PLa
      (clockwise)
      16EI
    4. 59PLa
      (anticlockwise)
      16EI
Correct Option: A

Actual rotation at B = Rotation at B due to applied force ↻ – Rotation at B due to Rc ↺.

=
5PaL
16EI
