When a simply-supported elastic beam of span L and flexural rigidity EI is loaded with a uniformly distributed load w per unit length, the deflection at the mid-span is Δ0 = 5384 × wL4EI. If the load on one half of the span is now removed, the mid-span deflection _______.
- 1remains unchanged at Δ0
- 2reduces to a value greater than Δ0/2
- 3reduces to a value less than Δ0/2
- 4reduces to Δ0/2✓
Correct answer
reduces to Δ0/2
