8.2 MACAULAYS METHOD OF INTEGRATION This method is suitable for beams subjected to concentrated loads and can be extended to uniformly distributed loads also. It consists of successive integration of expressions for bending moment in such a way that same constants of integration are valid for all portions of the beam even though the law of bending moment differs from portion to portion. The following procedure is adopted to apply this method: 1. Write the general expression for the bending moment covering all the loads just before the right hand support. 2. A bracket is disregarded when for a particular value of x the contents of the bracket becomes negative. 3. The bracket terms must be kept intact and not multiplied out until a numerical substitution is made for x. 4. If there is a uniformly distributed load starting anywhere and extending upto the right and then the general equation for bending moment will hold good for the entire beam. However, if the load does not extend upto the right end, the load may be

extended upto the right end, and an equal and opposite load may be added to counteract the effect due to the additional load. 8.2.1 Concentrated Load on a Simply Supported Beam Consider a simply supported beam AB of span 1 carrying concentrated load W at C at a distance a from left end support.

Example 8.1. A beam AB, 15 m long is simply supported at the ends. It carries two concentrated loads of 900 kN and 60 kN at 4m and lOm respectively from the left end. Moment of inertia of the beam about the neutral axis is 15 x 10 m4 and E = 200 GPa. Calculate the deflection of the beam under the two loads.

Example 8.2 A beam AB, simply supported at the ends, is 5m long. It is loaded as shown in Fig. 8.7 (a). If E = 210 GPa and I = 1 x 104m4 calculate the deflection at the centre. Solution. The udi has been extended to the end B and an equal and opposite udi is applied on the span DB, as shown in Fig. 8.7 (h).
