The correct Answer should be A.

Sanny said:   8 years ago
A is the correct answer.

Rb Dhuriya said:   8 years ago
I think option A is the correct answer.

Radhe said:   7 years ago
Option A is correct, it is a direct formula of it.

@All.

Here the question is asking for maximum deflection not for the deflection at position C. So the answer here given is correct.

Ram said:   7 years ago
It is correct. The correct answer is B.

It's given value in question is deflection at point C NOT Maximum deflection,
And max deflection is to find;
If b > a
So √(l *a)/3 distance from point b.

According to Maculay's method when point load act on eccentric then the answer is correct.

The expression given is True, put, a=b=l/2, and you will get the expression, Wl^3/48EI.

In simply supported beams deflection =Wl^3/48EI.

In simpy supported with UDL deflection =5Wl^4/384EI.

Does it require constant bending moment equation for Macaulay method?
