(5/8 ) 1-coat finish sidewalls perpendicular or parallel 400 or 600 (2)16 or 24.
The stress in a bending beam can be expressed as
σ = y M / I (1)
where
σ = stress (Pa (N/m2), N/mm2, psi)
y = distance to point from neutral axis (m, mm, in)
M = bending moment (Nm, lb in)
I = moment of Inertia (m4, mm4, in4)
The calculator below can be used to calculate maximum stress and deflection of beams with one single or uniform distributed loads.
Beam Supported at Both Ends - Uniform Continuous Distributed Load
The moment in a beam with uniform load supported at both ends in position x can be expressed as
Mx = q x (L - x) / 2 (2)
where
Mx = moment in position x (Nm, lb in)
Deflection 5 8 13 Reasons
x = distance from end (m, mm, in)
The maximum moment is at the center of the beam at distance L/2 and can be expressed as
Mmax = q L2 / 8 (2a)
where
Mmax = maximum moment (Nm, lb in)
q = uniform load per length unit of beam (N/m, N/mm, lb/in)
L = length of beam (m, mm, in)
Maximum Stress
Equation 1 and 2a can be combined to express maximum stress in a beam with uniform load supported at both ends at distance L/2 as
σmax = ymax q L2 / (8 I) (2b)
where
σmax= maximum stress (Pa (N/m2), N/mm2, psi)
ymax = distance to extreme point from neutral axis (m, mm, in)
- 1 N/m2 = 1x10-6 N/mm2 = 1 Pa = 1.4504x10-4 psi
- 1 psi (lb/in2) = 144 psf (lbf/ft2) = 6,894.8 Pa (N/m2) = 6.895x10-3 N/mm2
Maximum deflection:
δmax = 5 q L4 / (384 E I) (2c)
where
δmax = maximum deflection (m, mm, in)
E = Modulus of Elasticity (Pa (N/m2), N/mm2, psi)
Deflection in position x:
δx = q x (L3 - 2 L x2 + x3) / (24 E I) (2d)
Note! - deflection is often the limiting factor in beam design. For some applications beams must be stronger than required by maximum loads, to avoid unacceptable deflections.
Forces acting on the ends:
R1 = R2
= q L / 2 (2e)
where
R = reaction force (N, lb)
Example - Beam with Uniform Load, Metric Units
A UB 305 x 127 x 42 beam with length 5000 mm carries a uniform load of 6 N/mm. The moment of inertia for the beam is 8196 cm4(81960000 mm4) and the modulus of elasticity for the steel used in the beam is 200 GPa (200000 N/mm2). The height of the beam is 300 mm (the distance of the extreme point to the neutral axis is 150 mm).
The maximum stress in the beam can be calculated
σmax = (150 mm) (6 N/mm) (5000 mm)2 / (8 (81960000 mm4))
= 34.3 N/mm2
= 34.3 106 N/m2 (Pa)
= 34.3 MPa
The maximum deflection in the beam can be calculated
δmax = 5 (6 N/mm) (5000 mm)4 / ((200000 N/mm2) (81960000 mm4) 384)
= 2.98 mm
Uniform Load Beam Calculator - Metric Units
- 1 mm4 = 10-4 cm4 = 10-12 m4
- 1 cm4 = 10-8 m = 104 mm
- 1 in4 = 4.16x105 mm4 = 41.6 cm4
- 1 N/mm2 = 106 N/m2 (Pa)
Uniform Load Beam Calculator - Imperial Units
Example - Beam with Uniform Load, Imperial Units
The maximum stress in a 'W 12 x 35' Steel Wide Flange beam, 100 inches long, moment of inertia 285 in4, modulus of elasticity 29000000 psi, with uniform load 100 lb/in can be calculated as
σmax = ymax q L2 / (8 I)
= (6.25 in) (100 lb/in) (100 in)2 / (8 (285 in4))
= 2741 (lb/in2, psi)
The maximum deflection can be calculated as
δmax = 5 q L4 / (E I 384)
= 5 (100 lb/in) (100 in)4 / ((29000000 lb/in2) (285 in4) 384)
= 0.016 in

The maximum stress in a 'W 12 x 35' Steel Wide Flange beam, 100 inches long, moment of inertia 285 in4, modulus of elasticity 29000000 psi, with a center load 10000 lb can be calculated like
σmax = ymax F L / (4 I)
= (6.25 in) (10000 lb) (100 in) / (4 (285 in4))
= 5482 (lb/in2, psi)
The maximum deflection can be calculated as
δmax = F L3 / E I 48
= (10000 lb/in) (100 in)3 / ((29000000 lb/in2) (285 in4) 48)
= 0.025 in
