Equations

Ss = I / c2

c2 = (5 b) / 8

I2 = (19 b3 d) / 480

y2 = (6 P x) / (b Ss )

h = (6 P l / b Ss)1/2

f = ( 8 P / b E ) ( l / h )3


Where:

E = Modulus of Elasticity psi

(N/mm2)

I = Moment of Inertia in4 (mm4)
P = Force lbf (N)
h = Deflection inches (mm)
Se= Section Modulus    
a, b, c, d, x, l = Some distance as indicated inches (mm)
