Question 1

What does Theorem I of the Moment Area Method denote?

  • Slope change equals the area under the M/EI diagram
  • Deflection equals the moment of the area under the M/EI diagram
  • Both are the same

💡 Hint: Recall the definitions of the two theorems.

Question 2

True or False: The Moment Area Method is less complex than traditional integration when analyzing piecewise loaded beams.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Think about the benefits of simplification.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A uniform beam with varying loads is subjected to four different point loads. Use the Moment Area Method to determine the maximum deflection at the midspan.

💡 Hint: Divide the beam into segments and handle each loading scenario separately.

Question 2

Given a cantilever beam subjected to a point load and a distributed load. Calculate the slope change and deflection using both the Moment Area Method and the double integration method. Compare results.

💡 Hint: Map out your areas clearly!
