    Glossary: Definitions

    Appendix B Glossary: Definitions The definitions given here apply to the terminology used throughout this book. Some of the terms may be defined differently by other authors; when this is the case, alternative terminology is noted. When two or more terms with identical or similar meaning are in general acceptance, they are given in the order of preference of the current writers. Allowable stress (working stress): If a member is so designed that the maximum stress as calculated for the expected conditions of service is less than some limiting value, the member will have a proper margin of security against damage or failure. This limiting value is the allowable stress subject to the material and condition of service in question. The allowable stress is made less than the damaging stress because of uncertainty as to the conditions of service, nonuniformity of material, and inaccuracy of the stress analysis (see Ref. 1). The margin between the allowable stress and the damaging stress may be reduced in proportion to the certainty with which the conditions of the service are known, the intrinsic reliability of the material, the accuracy with which the stress produced by the loading can be calculated, and the degree to which failure is unattended by danger or loss. (Compare with Damaging stress; Factor of safety; Factor of utilization; Margin of safety. See Refs. l–3.) Apparent elastic limit (useful limit point): The stress at which the rate of change of strain with respect to stress is 50% greater than at zero stress. It is more definitely determinable from the stress–strain diagram than is the proportional limit, and is useful for comparing materials of the same general class.

  • Deflection of Beams Introduction

    Deflection of Beams Introduction

    Deflection of Beams Introduction: In all practical engineering applications, when we use the different components, normally we have to operate them within the certain limits i.e. the constraints are placed on the performance and behavior of the components. For instance we say that the particular component is supposed to operate within this value of stress and the deflection of the component should not exceed beyond a particular value. In some problems the maximum stress however, may not be a strict or severe condition but there may be the deflection which is the more rigid condition under operation. It is obvious therefore to study the methods by which we can predict the deflection of members under lateral loads or transverse loads, since it is this form of loading which will generally produce the greatest deflection of beams. Assumption: The following assumptions are undertaken in order to derive a differential equation of elastic curve for the loaded beam 1. Stress is proportional to strain i.e. hooks law applies. Thus, the equation is valid only for beams that are not stressed beyond the elastic limit. 2. The curvature is always small. 3. Any deflection resulting from the shear deformation of the material or shear stresses is neglected. It can be shown that the deflections due to shear deformations are usually small and hence can be ignored. Consider a beam AB which is initially straight and horizontal when unloaded. If under the action of loads the beam deflect to a position A'B' under load or infact we say that the axis of the beam bends to a shape A'B'.

    Mechanics of Materials Chapter 6 Deflection of Beams

    Mechanics of Materials Chapter 6 Deflection of Beams 6.1 Introduction Because the design of beams is frequently governed by rigidity rather than strength. For example, building codes specify limits on deflections as well as stresses. Excessive deflection of a beam not only is visually disturbing but also may cause damage to other parts of the building. For this reason, building codes limit the maximum deflection of a beam to about 1/360 th of its spans. A number of analytical methods are available for determining the deflections of beams. Their common basis is the differential equation that relates the deflection to the bending moment. The solution of this equation is complicated because the bending moment is usually a discontinuous function, so that the equations must be integrated in a piecewise fashion. Consider two such methods in this text: Method of double integration The primary advantage of the double- integration method is that it produces the equation for the deflection everywhere along the beams. Moment-area method The moment- area method is a semigraphical procedure that utilizes the properties of the area under the bending moment diagram. It is the quickest way to compute the deflection at a specific location if the bending moment diagram has a simple shape. The method of superposition, in which the applied loading is represented as a series of simple loads for which deflection formulas are available. Then the desired deflection is computed by adding the contributions of the component loads (principle of superposition). 6.2 Double- Integration Method Figure 6.1 (a) illustrates the bending deformation of a beam, the displacements and slopes are very small if the stresses are below the elastic limit.

    Shear Force and Bending Moment in Beams and Frames CHAPTER2

    Shear Force and Bending Moment in Beams and Frames CHAPTER2 2.0 INTRODUCTION To bridge a gap in land on earth is most pressing problem for structural engineers. Slabs, beams or any combination of these are extensively used in bridging gaps. Construction of bridges, covering of door and window openings and covering of roof of enclosures are examples where beams and slabs are used. The space below a beam is available for other use. Structural actions of beams and slabs are slightly different. A beam collects fl oor load and transfers it longitudinally to the supports, which are usually provided either at both ends (beam action) or at one end only (cantilever action). Cantilevers are used in construction of balconies in homes and footpaths in bridges. A slab transfers fl oor load in both directions whereas a beam transfers fl oor load in only longitudinal direction. Therefore, a beam is a one-dimensional structural element and it can be represented by a line as shown in Fig. 2.1(b) in which arrow shows the direction of load transfer. Mechanical engineers extensively use cantilevers. The boom of a crane, the cutting blade of a bulldozer and wings of a fan are few examples of cantilevers. The span of beam or cantilever, which is defi ned as distance between adjacent supports, governs the complexity of its design. Shear force and bending moment diagrams quantify structural action of beams and cantilevers and are required for their rational design. Beams and cantilevers shown in Fig. 2.1 are known as fl exural elements.
  • How Beam Deflection Works?

    How Beam Deflection Works?

    How Beam Deflection Works? Beams are in every home and in one sense are quite simple. The weight placed on them causes them to bend (deflect), and you just need to make sure they don’t deflect too much by choosing a large enough beam. As shown in the diagram below, a beam that is deflecting takes on a curved shape that you might mistakenly assume to be circular. So how do we figure out what shape the curvature takes in order to predict how much a beam will deflect under load? After all you cannot wait until the house is built to find out the beam deflects too much. A beam is generally considered to fail if it deflects more than 1 inch. Solution to How Deflection Works: The model for SIMPLY SUPPORTED beam deflection Initial conditions: y(0) = y(L) = 0 Simply supported is engineer-speak for it just sits on supports without any further attachment that might help with the deflection we are trying to avoid. The dashed curve represents the deflected beam of length L with left side at the point (0,0) and right at (L,0). We consider a random point on the curve P = (x,y) where the y-coordinate would be the deflection at a distance of x from the left end. Moment in engineering is a beams desire to rotate and is equal to force times distance M = Fd. If the beam is in equilibrium (not breaking) then the moment must be equal on each side of every point on the beam.
