computing the shear, moment and deflection at a number of points along a beam hasbeen developed. This applet also draws the shear, moment and deflection diagrams. The types ofbeams that can be considered include: a) cantilever beams, b) simply supported beams, c) proppedcantilever beams, and d) beams with both ends fixed. A variety of loads can be applied to thebeams including uniformly distributed load, concentrated loads, linearly varying loads, andmoments at the ends or at intermediate points along the beam. These loads can be applied in anycombination. The applet uses the principle of superposition to obtain the combined effect of theloadsThe applet calculates the shear, moment and deflections at specified intervals along the beam. Italso
