13. 250 lb P 72 in.  Max ? Calculating Deflection on a Spring Diving Board Pine Diving Board Dimensions: Base (B) = 12 in. Height (H) = 2 in. Known: Pine (E) = 1.76 x 106 psi Applied Load (P)= 250 lb

14. P L  max Deflection of Cantilever Beam with Concentrated Load  max = P x L3 3 xE x I Where:  max is the maximum deflection P is the applied load L is the length E is the elastic modulus I is the cross section moment of inertia

15. Moment of Inertia (MOI) Moment of Inertia (I) is a mathematical property of a cross section (measured in inches4) that is concerned with a surface area and how that area is distributed about a centroidal axis.

16. I = (12 in.)(2 in.)3 12 I = (12 in.)(8 in.3) 12 I = 96 in.4 12 Calculating Moment of Inertia (I) I = 8 in.4

17. 250 lb P 72 in.  Max Cantilever Beam Load Example Known: Pine (E) = 1.76 x 106 psi Applied Load (P) = 250 lb •  max = P x L3 • 3 x E x I •  max = (250 lb) (72 in.)3 • (3) (1.76 x 106 psi) (8 in.4) •  max = (250 lb) (373248 in.3) • (3) (1.76 x 106 psi) (8 in.4)

18. max= (9.3312 x 107 lb)(in.3) (5.28 x 106psi)(8 in.4) max= (9.3312 x 107 lb)(in.3) (4.224 x 107 psi)(in.4) max= (9.3312 x 107) (4.224 x 107 in.) max= 2.21 inches Cantilever Beam Load Example

19. L P  max Calculating Deflection on a Pine Beam in a Structure Beam Dimensions: Base (B) = 4 in. Height (H) = 6 in. Length (L) = 96 in. Known: Pine (E) = 1.76x106 psi Applied Load (P)= 200 lb

20. L P  max Deflection of Simply Supported Beam with Concentrated Load  max = P x L3 48 x E x I • Note that the simply supported beam is pinned at one end. A roller support is provided at the other end. • Where:  max is the maximum deflection • P is the applied load • L is the length • E is the elastic modulus • I is the cross section moment of inertia

21. I = (4 in.)(6 in.)3 12 I = (4 in.)(216 in.3) 12 I = 864 in.4 12 Calculating Moment of Inertia (I) I = 72 in.4

22. Simply Supported Beam Example 96 in. Known: Pine (E) = 1.76x106 psi Applied Load (P) = 200 lb P  max •  max = P x L3 • 48 x E x I •  max = (200 lb)(96 in.)3 • (48)(1.76x106psi)(72 in.4) •  max = (200 lb)(884736 in.3) • (48)(1.76x106 psi)(72 in.4)

23. Simply Supported Beam Example • max= (1.769472 x 108 lb)(in.3) (8.448 x 107psi)(72 in.4) • max= (1.769472 x 108 lb)(in.3) (6.08256 x 109 psi)(in.4) • max= (1.769472 x 108) (6.08256 x 109 in.) • max= 0.029 inches
