How does a concentrated load impact beam deflection?
47. How does a concentrated load impact beam deflection?
- Causes lateral displacement
- Has no effect
- Increases deflection
- Reduces deflection
Answer
The correct answer is: C) Increases deflection
Explanation
Concentrated loads applied to beams lead to higher deflections compared to uniformly distributed loads, as they create concentrated bending moments.
