V. Forces on a Propped Cantilever 2
To find deflections, stress and support reactions due to a uniform load on a beam with one end fixed and the other end supported by a roller.
Reference
Hand calculation using the following reference:

Problem
A horizontal beam of length = 100 in, area = 4 in2, height = 2 in, and moment of inertia = 1.3333 in4 is simply supported at one end and fixed at the other end (a "propped" cantilever). The beam is subjected to an arbitrary uniform loading. Determine the deflection, δ, at x = 42.15 in., the slope, θ, at end A, the maximum bending stress, σbend, in the beam, and the support reactions.
