Abstract
The various methods for computing beam deflections may be classified into two main groups-the double-integration method and the moment-area method. In both methods, beam deflection is considered a function of bending moment; and bending moment, in turn, is a function of the force system acting on the beam. In other words, deflection is computed, not directly from the forces acting on the beam, but rather indirectly through the medium of bending moment. Such indirect approach naturally makes the computations lengthy and complicated, and the aim of this paper is to suggest a more direct solution.
