Step 1
First, we need to find the reactions at the supports A and B. The beam is subjected to a uniformly distributed load (UDL) of 0.5 kip/ft and a concentrated load of 5 kip at the midpoint. Show more…

Determine the height h above the base of the centroid of the cross-sectional area of the beam. Neglect the fillets. Assume a = 10.52 in., b = 13.03 in., c = 1.37 in., d = 6.13 in., e = 0.80 in. Answer: h = in.

The $\mathrm{W} 10 \times 30$ cantilevered beam is made of $\mathrm{A}-36$ steel and is subjected to unsymmetrical bending caused by the applied moment. Determine the deflection of the centroid at its end $A$ due to the loading. Hint: Resolve the moment into components and use superposition.
