1 DEFETIONS OF ES ND FRES INTRODUTION : When a structure is loaded, its stressed elements deform. In a truss, bars in tension elongate and bars in compression shorten. eams bend. s this deformation occur, the structure changes shape and points on the structure displace. lthough these deflections are normally small, as a part of the total design the engineer must verify that these deflections are within the limits specified by the governing design code to ensure that the structure is serviceable. arge deflections cause cracking of non structural elements such as plaster ceiling, tile walls or brittle pipes. Since the magnitude of deflections is also a measure of a member s stiffness, limiting deflections also ensures that ecessive vibrations of building floors. In this chapter we consider several methods of computing deflections and slopes at points along the ais of beams and frames. These methods are based on the differential equation of the elastic curve of a beam. This equation relates curvature at a point along beam s longitudinal ais to the bending moment at that point and the properties of the cross section and the material. If the elastic curve seems difficult to establish, it is suggested that the moment diagram for the beam or frame be drawn first. positive moment tends to bend a beam concave upward. ikewise a negative moment bend the beam concave downward.

2 Therefore if the moment diagram is known, it will be easy to construct the elastic curve. In particular, there must be an inflection point at the point where the curve changes from concave down to concave up, since this is a zero moment. θ θ θ θ SHETIY oment Diagrams Elastic urves Inflection point Inflection point

3 DOUE INTEGRTION ETHOD The double integration method is a procedure to establish the equations for slope and deflection at points along the elastic curve of a loaded beam. The equations are derived by integrating the differential equation of the elastic curve twice. The method assumes that all deformations are produced by moment. GEOETRY OF URVES The slope of the curve at point dy d tanθ If the angles are small, the slope can be written dy d θ y Elastic curve From the geometry of triangular segment O ρ. d θ ds O d ine tangent at Dividing each side by ds dθ ψ ρ ds dθ/ds represents the change in slope per unit length of distance along the curve, is called curvature and denoted by symbol Ψ.

6 OENT-RE ETHOD There are two moment-area theorems. These theorems were developed by Otto ohr and later stated formally by harles E. Greene in 87. These theorems provide a semi-graphical technique for determining the slope of the elastic curve and its deflection due to bending. They are particularly advantageous when used to solve problems involving beams especially those subjected to serious of concentrated loadings or having segments with different moments of inertia. The first theorem is used to calculate a change in slope between two points on the elastic curve. The second theorem is used to compute the vertical distance (called a tangential deviation) between a point on the elastic curve and a line tangent to the elastic curve at a second point. These quantities are illustrated in the following figure. Elastic curve θ t θ θ Tangent at Derivation of the moment-area theorems : The relation between slope and moment and bending stiffness is dθ d dθ d It states that the change in slope of the tangents on either side of the element d is equal to the area under the / diagram. Integrating from point on the elastic curve to point we have, θ d

7 The ordinates of the moment curve must be divided by the bending stiffness to produce / curve. The last equation forms the basis for the first moment-area theorem. The change in slope between any two points on a continuous elastic curve is equal to the area under the / curve between these points. The tangential deviation dt can be epressed by dt dθ. / diag. Substitute dθ in the equation, dt ( d). Elastic curves d dθ d dt dθ Tangent at To evaluate t we must sum all increments of dt by integrating the contribution of all the infinitesimal segment between points and. t dt. d Tangent at t θ Remembering that the quantity d/ represents an infinitesimal area under the / diagram and that is the distance from the area to point, we can interpret the integral as the moment about point of the area under the / diagram between points and

8 This result constitutes the second moment-area theorem. The tangential deviation at a point on a continuous elastic curve from a tangent drawn to the elastic curve at a second point is equal to the moment about of the area under the / diagram between the two points. Eample : ompute the slope and deflection at the tip of the cantilever beam. is constant. y t v Tangent at is always horizontal. θ θ + θ θ θ θ The slope at mid-point : / DIGR θ θ 8 t + v 8 inus sign indicates that the tangent lies above elastic curve

Take E Ga, 4 m 5 N.m y inspection the moment diagram for the beam is a rectangle. If we construct the / diagram relative to I. The couple causes the beam to deflect concave up. We are required to find the vertical displacements at and. These displacements can be related directly to the deviations between the tangents. 5 / diagram 5 tan t 5. * *4*.5m t t t 75 5 *4* m 9.6mm **.5 Since both answers are positive, they indicate that points and lie above the tangent at.

12 ONJUGTE E ETHOD The method was first presented by Otto ohr in 86. This method relies only the principles of statics and hence its application will be more familiar. The basis for the method comes from the similarity between both dq d d d q Q or... q d d which relate a beam s internal shear and moment to its applied loading, and d θ d d y d which relate the slope and deflection of its elastic curve to the internal moment divided by. Or integrating Q θ ( q) d d y ( q) d d These equations indicate that the shear in a beam can be obtained by integrating the load once and the moment by integrating the load twice. Since the curvature of a beam is proportional to the bending moment, slope and deflection of the beam can be obtained by successively integrating the moment. We want to replace the integration indicated in the equations by drawing the shear and bending moment diagrams. To do this we will consider a beam having the same length as the real beam, bot referred to here as the conjugate beam. It is loaded with the / diagram of the real beam. Shear and moment diagrams of the conjugate beam represent one and two integrations, respectively of the / diagram of the real beam. We thus conclude that shear and moment diagrams of the conjugate beam represent the slope and deflection of the real beam. Now we can therefore state two theorems related to conjugate beam, namely

13 Theorem : The slope at a point in the real beam is equal to the shear at the corresponding point in the conjugate beam. Theorem : The displacement at a point in the real beam is equal to the moment at the corresponding point in the conjugate beam. Since each of the previous equations requires integration it is important that the proper boundary conditions be used when they are applied.

14 RE E ONJUGTE E If we treat positive values of the / diagram applied to the beam as a distributed load acting upward and negative values of / as a downward load, positive shear denotes a negative slope and a negative shear a positive slope. Further negative values of moment indicate a downward deflection and positive values of moment an upward deflection. s a rule, neglecting aial force, statically determinate real beams have statically indeterminate conjugate beams; and statically indeterminate real beams, as in the last figure above become unstable conjugate beams. lthough this occurs, the / loading will provide the necessary equilibrium to hold the conjugate beam stable.

19 EXTERN WORK ND STRIN ENERGY ost energy methods are based on the conservation of the energy which states that work done by all the eternal forces acting on a structure, W, is transformed into internal work or strain energy U, which is developed when the structure deforms. If the material s elastic limit is not eceeded, the elastic strain energy will return the structure to its undeformed state when the loads are removed. WU Eternal work done by a force : When a force F undergoes a displacement d in the same direction as the force, the work done is, dw F. d If the total displacement is, the work becomes W F. d F F W F. d Represents the triangular area. d

20 Suppose that is already applied to the bar and that another force F is now applied, so the bar deflects further by an amount, the work done by (not F ) when the bar undergoes the further deflection is then F. W The work of F does not change its magnitude. Work is simply the force magnitude () times the displacement ( ) F Eternal work done by a moment: The work of a moment is defined by the product of the magnitude of the moment and the angle dθ through which it rotates. If the total angle of rotation is Θ radians, the work becomes s in the case of force, if the moment is applied to a structure gradually, from zero to, the work is then W θ dw W θ. dθ. dθ However if the moment is already applied to the structure and other loadings further distort the structure by an amount Θ, then the rotates Θ, and the work is W. θ

The method permits the designer to include in deflection computations the influence of support settlements, temperature change, and fabrication errors. To compute a component of deflection by the method of virtual work, the designer applies a unit force to the structure at the point and in the direction of the desired displacement. This force is often called a dummy load, the displacement it will undergo is produced by other effects. These other effects include the real loads, temperature change, support settlement and so forth. In other words, the deflected shape due to the real forces is assumed to be the virtual deflected shape of the dummy structure, and the principle of work and energy is applied. pplication of unit force method to trusses Virtual forces Real displacements.

The total work due to F and F. W ( δ ) F + δ F + δf F In a linear system, the work performed by two forces is independent of the order in which the forces are applied.
