Examples and concept checkpoints pertaining to four basic superposition skills.

Determine beam deflections at various points in a simply supported beam with two overhangs. All deflections can be determined with superposition of no more than three basic deflection cases. Numeric values rather than symbolic variables.

Introduction to the superposition method. Two of the most basic examples — one simply supported beam example and one cantilever beam example.

Use both slope and deflection equations to compute deflection at cantilever tip.

Determine deflection using both upward and downward deflection cases.

Use both simply supported and cantilever beam equations to determine slope and deflection at the free end of the overhang.

Use simple and cantilever beam equations to determine deflection in the middle of the simple span.

Subtract loading from portion of span.

Determine the force magnitude required to make the beam deflection equal a specified value.

Determine the moment magnitude required to make the beam slope equal a specified value.
