Deflection
• Deflection is the distance that a beam bends
from its original horizontal position, when
subjected to loads.
• The compressive and tensile forces above and
below the neutral axis, result in a shortening
(above n.a.) and lengthening (below n.a.) of the
longitudinal fibers of a simple beam, resulting in
a curvature which deflects from the original
position.

Slope
• The curved shape of a deflected beam is
called the elastic curve
• The angle of a tangent to the elastic
curve is called the slope, and is
measured in radians.
• Slope is influenced by the stiffness of the
member:
– material stiffness E, the modulus of
elasticity
– sectional stiffness I, the moment of
inertia,
– as well as the length of the beam, L

Deflection Limits (serviceability)
• Various guidelines have been
derived, based on usage, to
determine maximum allowable
deflection limits.
• Typically, a floor system with a LL
deflection in excess of L/360 will
feel bouncy or crack plaster.
• Flat roofs with total deflections
greater than L/120 are in danger
of ponding.

Symmetrically Loaded Beams
• Maximum slope occurs at the ends of the
beam
• A point of zero slope occurs at the center line.
This is the point of maximum deflection.
• Moment is positive for gravity loads.
• Shear and slope have balanced + and - areas.
• Deflection is negative for gravity loads.
University of Michigan, TCAUP Structures II Slide 6/30
Cantilever Beams
• One end fixed. One end free
• Fixed end has maximum moment,
but zero slope and deflection.
• Free end has maximum slope and
deflection, but zero moment.
• Slope is either downward (-) or
upward (+) depending on which
end is fixed.
• Shear sign also depends of which
end is fixed.
• Moment is always negative for
gravity loads.

Deflection: by Superposition of Equations
• Deflection can be determined
by the use of equations for
specific loading conditions
• See posted pages for more
examples. A good source is
the AISC Steel Manual.
• By “superposition” equations
can be added for combination
load cases. Care should be
taken that added equations all
give deflection at the same
point, e.g. the center line.
• Note that if length and load (w)

Example: Equations Method – By Superposition
• To determine the total
deflection of the beam for the
given loading condition, begin
by breaking up the loading
diagram into parts, one part for
each load case.
• Compute the total deflection
by superimposing the
deflections from each of the
individual loading conditions.
In this example, use the
equation for a mid-span point
load and the equation for a
uniform distributed load
