Download Solution PDFExplanation:
- A fixed beam has its ends fixed, meaning it cannot rotate or displace at those ends. Due to the constraints:
-
The deflection at the fixed ends is zero because the beam is not allowed to move vertically at the supports.
-
The slope at the fixed ends is also zero because there is no rotation allowed at the fixed supports.
Additional Information
Simply Supported Beam
Definition: A simply supported beam is one that is supported at both ends, with one end typically resting on a roller and the other on a hinge or pin.
Key Characteristics:
-
The beam is free to rotate at the supports, meaning there is no moment resistance at the supports.
-
It experiences vertical reactions at the supports but no bending moments at the supports.
- The deflection is present along the length of the beam, and it is typically greatest at the midpoint.
- Typical Applications: Bridges, building floors, and roof structures.
