(N/mm2)

I =
Beam Moment of Inertia in4 (mm4)
L = Length of Beam inches (mm)
F =
 Loading Point lbs (N)
Mn = Beam Moment Calculated psi-in (N-mm)
WL
Distributed Load Amplitude Lbs/in2 (N/mm)
Wa
Distributed Load Amplitude Lbs/in2 (N/mm)
y =
Beam Deflection inches (mm)
an =
Some distance as indicated inches (mm)
  • Deflections apply only to constant cross sections along entire length.
