    1) The document discusses bending moments in beams and how to calculate beam deflection. Deflection occurs when beams experience external stresses and is measured as the distance between the original and deformed neutral beam surfaces. 2) The document presents the Euler-Bernoulli beam equation for calculating deflection based on the second derivative of the deflected shape with respect to position, as well as the Young's modulus, area moment of inertia, and internal bending moment. 3) An experiment is described that measures the deflection of a beam under various loading conditions to demonstrate hogging and sagging. Load was applied at different positions and deflection readings were recorded to analyze bending behavior.

    Bending moments in beams

    Literature Review:
    Deflection in beams occur mainly when they are brought under external
    stresses. The deformation of a beam is usually expressed in terms of its
    deflection from its original unloaded position. The deflection is measured from
    the original neutral surface of the beam to the neutral surface of the
    deformed beam. The configuration assumed by the deformed neutral surface
    is known as the elastic curve of the beam. The deflection of beam elements is
    usually calculated on the basis of the Euler–Bernoulli beam equation while that
    of a plate or shell element is calculated using plate or shell theory.

    Mathematically, the Deflection can be written as:


    d2
    M= EI
    d x2

    By rearranging, the equation for deflection (d) becomes:


    d2 M (x)
    2
    =
    d x E ( x) I(x)

    where the second derivative of its deflected shape with respect to x is


    interpreted as its curvature, E is the Young's modulus, I is the area moment of
    inertia of the cross-section, and M is the internal bending moment in the
    beam.

    Procedure

    Experimentation and calculation


    We placed first load hanger at a point 100mm, second load hanger at a
    distance of 310mm and the third one at a distance of 600mm from fixed end
    A. Point C is still located at a groove 300mm from end A. Then we balanced
    the beam and measured the datum value of apparatus and load hangers. The R
    in this experiment is 150mm. After that we checked the datum value for zero
    load and then the datum deflection for loads of 10N and 20N. this was first
    part of the experiment. In the second part we again checked datum value for
    zero load and then for the following conditions:

    1. When W2 = 5N

    2. When W1 = W3 = 10N & W2 = 5N

    The table1 below shows observations of part I and table2 shows observations
    of part II.

    Table 1

    Load (N) Balance Net Force (N) Bending


    reading(W) moment (Nmm)
    0 16 0 0
    W2=5N 22 6 6*150=900
    W1=W3=10N,W2=5N 33 17 17*150=2550

    Table 2

    Load (N) Balance reading/Net force(N) for load


    W1 W2 W3
    0 16/0 16/0 16/0
    10 20/4 28/12 22/6
    20 24/8 41/25 28/12

    Conclusion:

    From the above observations and calculations, we conclude that upon


    application of load, bending moment is produced in a beam. Either hogging or
    sagging occurs. When load is put at W2, and W3 and W1 are left unloaded,
    sagging is produced. Similarly when larger loads are put at W1 and W3, hogging
    is produced.
