Q5: Experiments were conducted to determine thedeflection on a T- section steel girder 200 mm x 200 mm x 10 mm anda rectangular beam made up of concrete having breadth 15 cm anddepth equal to 25 cm. T- section girder is used as a simplysupported beam for a span of 4 meters but rectangular beam is usedas a cantilever beam for span of 6 meters. Both beams are subjectedto a uniformly distributed load ‘w’ N/mm run over the entire span.Suggest a suitable value for ‘w’ so that the maximum deflection inthe simply supported beam does not exceed 17.65 mm. Compare themaximum value of slope and deflection for both steel and concretebeams. Modulus of Elasticity, E for steel = 2 x 107 N/cm2, E forconcrete = 2.5 x 107 kg/cm2. What will be your suggestions tominimize the deflection on both steel and concrete beams based onthe results obtained for the slope and the deflection ofbeams
