M R = RA x W1 ( x a ) W2 ( x a b)
But RA x W1 ( x a ) W2 ( x a b) is the bending moment of the external forces.
Hence the modelling principle for the effects of externally applied loads is that Bending
Moment at a section = Moment of resistance at that section. The flexural equation
M

is based on this principle.

This principle applies well to model continuous beams. However this method cannot be
applied to telescopic beams where there is discontinuity between sections and the
discrepancy is more pronounced when there is a gap between the overlapping sections.
Section 3 describes the modifications required when modelling telescopic beams.

Figure 15: Tip Reaction Model Beam Assembly and Reactions on Individual Beams
In the Tip Reaction Model the internal reactions transmit the effects of applied loads. The
effects of the external loads applied can then be calculated using these reactions instead of the
bending moment or the moment of resistance used in the continuous beam. Each beam
section can now be considered separately and the principles of classic mechanics can be
applied on them. This section studies the validity of the tip reaction model by comparing the
bending stress values calculated using this model with those obtained from a finite element
analysis using ABAQUS. It also compares the stress values at corresponding points on a
continuous beam of similar dimensions subjected to similar loading. The analyses were
carried out on a telescopic cantilever assembly and a continuous beam, described as follows.
2.1 Theoretical Considerations
Bending stresses induced in a beam is a standard work by books on strength of materials. For
instance Rees [2] establishes that the bending stress induced is given by the equation
=
M
y and explains its derivation.
I
Consider the beam assembly shown in Figure 15 and assume that it is fixed at end A and
carries a tip load at F. Due to self load and the applied tip load there will be tensile stresses in
all three beam sections above the horizontal plane of symmetry and compressive stresses in
portions below the plane of symmetry. If the depths of the sections can be assumed as d 1 ,
d 2 and d 3 and the beam is represented by the vertical plane of symmetry the maximum
M d3
M d1 M d 2
,
and
. The
2I 1
2I 2
2I 3
bending moment varies from point to point and these values can be calculated once the tip
reactions are known.

stress will be maximum in any section along the line A1C1B1E1D1F1. The shear stress will be
maximum along the line A2C2B2E2D2F2. A tip load of 30N will be applied and comparison of
bending stresses will be carried out along A1C1B1E1D1F1 and the comparison of shear stresses
will be carried out along A2C2B2E2D2F2.
10N will be applied and comparison of bending stresses will be carried out along

2.6.3.2 Beam CD
This beam has three sections CB, BE and ED with differing loads. The beam width also has
changed and thus b = 22 mm
For the section CB
( x l1 + a1 )
M = RC ( x l1 + a1 ) w2 ( x l1 + a1 )
and
2
Shear force is S = 150 .108 0.006594 ( x 600 )
Similar equations are established for sections BE and ED and fed to Excel to calculate
maximum bending stresses and maximum shear stresses in beam CD.
2.6.3.3 Beam EF
This beam has three sections ED and DF with differing loads. The beam width also has
changed and thus b =19 mm . Similar equations are established for sections ED and DF and
fed to Excel to calculate maximum bending stresses and maximum shear stresses in beam EF.
Figures 24 and 25 show the graphical comparison between the analytical and ABAQUS
derived bending stress, and the analytical and ABAQUS shear stress, respectively.

2.7.2 Calculation of Bending and Shear Stresses
Consider the sectional view of the continuous stepped beam shown in Figure 19. The bending
stress will be maximum in any section along the line A1C1B1E1D1F1. The shear stress will be
maximum along the line A2C2B2E2D2F2.
2.7.2.1 Section AB
Considering Section AC within Section AB
Bending moment at the section at a distance x from A M
x
= 56541 .4 + (33 .3616 x 0.007536 x ) and the maximum bending stress
