Problem 668
For the beam shown in Fig. P-668, compute the value of P that will cause the tangent to the elastic curve over support R2 to be
horizontal. What will then be the value of EI under the 100-lb load?
Solution 668
10R1 + 3P = 6(100)
R1 = 60 0.30P

EI tA/C = 0
(AreaAC ) X A = 0
1 20 1
(10)(600 3P )( ) (6)(600)(8) = 0
2 3 2
P = 56 lb answer
Thus,
240 1.2P = 172.8 lb
600 3P = 432 lb
1 1 1
EI tB/C = (6)(172.8)(2) + (6)(432)(4) (6)(600)(4)

EI tB/C = 979.2 lb ft
The negative sign indicates that the elastic curve is below the reference tangent.
Therefore,
downward answer

EI B = 979.2 lb ft
