A simple beam ACE is constructed with square cross sections and a double taper (see figure). The depth of the beam at the supports is dAand at the midpoint is dc= 2d 4. Each half of the beam has length L. Thus, the depth and moment of inertia / at distance x from the left-hand end are, respectively, in which IAis the moment of inertia at end A of the beam. (These equations are valid for .x between 0 and L, that is, for the left-hand half of the beam.) Obtain equations for the slope and deflection of the left-hand half of the beam due to the uniform load. From the equations in part (a), obtain formulas for the angle of rotation 94at support A and the deflection Scat the midpoint.
