Deflection of Fixed Beam with Load at Center Formula Elements

Variables
Deflection of Beam
Deflection of beam is the degree to which a structural element is displaced under a load (due to its deformation).
Symbol: δ
Measurement: LengthUnit: mm
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Width of Beam
Width of Beam is the horizontal measurement taken perpendicular to the length of beam.
Symbol: Wbeam
Measurement: LengthUnit: mm
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Beam Length
Beam Length is the center to center distance between the supports or the effective length of the beam.
