Deflection of a Cantilevered Beam using the Integration Method

by Bryan Woods

Submitted : Spring 2012

In this report I will be discussing how to find the equation that explains the maximum deflection of a cantilevered beam with a single load at the free end. I have used the integration method to calculate this equation. In conclusion I have found that the value for the maximum deflection is dependent on the physical and calculated properties of the beam, the length of the beam, and the externally applied force.
