Description of Calculator inputs:
Units: Inches or SI
(Metric)
Modulus of Elasticity: (Young's
Modulus) in tension and compression is the rate of change of
unit stress with respect to unit strain for the condition of
uniaxial stress within the proportional limit. For most
materials the modulus of elasticity is the same for tension and
compression.
(W) Applied Load (lb/N): Load
applied to beam in the selected units "Inches or SI (Metric)"
(L) Length of beam (in/mm): Enter the
length of beam in the desired units.
(X) Distance from Support (in/mm): Enter
desired distance from beam support for deflection calculations
Distance from Neutral Axis (in/mm): Enter
a distance from the neutral axis of beam for stress
calculation:
Description of Calculator outputs:
Deflection at Point X (in/mm): Beam deflection
at distance given "X'
Stress at Point X (psi/kPa): Stress
reported in the selected units.
Deflection at Center of Beam (psi/kPa):
Deflection at center of beam in the selected units.
Moment of Inertia: Calculated moment of
inertia derived from section modulus and distance from neutral
axis.
