STPlate5 (Cont)

The document provides calculations for slope and deflection of a beam under various loading conditions, specifically for a given value of w and material properties. It includes formulas to prove maximum deflections for simply-supported beams with concentrated loads and cantilever beams under uniform loads. Key equations presented are y = PL3/48EI for simply-supported beams and y = wL4/8 for cantilever beams.
