An in-depth analysis of elastic deformable supports in the context of euler-bernoulli beam theory. It covers various concepts such as shear correction factor, compatibility equations, and rotational flexibility. The document also discusses the calculation of shear deformability contribution and the effect of self-weight on internal partitions. Additionally, it explains the load combination at ultimate limit state (uls) and the verification of shear, axial load, and rotational equilibrium.

Some structural elements must be combined with others to create a structure that encloses a volume (ex. vercal support systems + horizontal spanning systems). A primary structural unit is a discrete structural element. Its dimensions directly related to the funconal dimensions of the building.
Example: roof deck – beams – trusses – columns – foundaons (they all transfer the load to the element on their right ll the ground).
Concrete is much stronger in compression than in tension, that’s why we add steel.
Loads applied transverse to the axis of a member cause the member to bow. Φ is called curvature and is equal to 0 if there is no deflecon.
The amount of curvature (1/R) developed in a beam ar a cross secon depends on the magnitude of the external moment present at the secon. The deformaons in the beam associated with this curvature vary linearly from a maximum tensile elongaon on one face of the beam to a maximum compressive deformaon on the other face.
Where there are no deformaons is the neutral axis.
A beam is a solid generated from a plane area (“cross-secon”) that moves remaining normal to the trajectory described by its centre of gravity, said “geometric axis”.
Hypothesis of the theory:
We consider these variables:
This is derived using trigonometry. u(x) and v(x) are the displacements of the barycentre point (since it’s solid, the thickness doesn’t change so it stays v(x)). U(x) is the generalized displacement that collects the displacement of the baricenter.
Since the actual shear sffness is too much, we need to use the shear correcon factor (>1):
G 6 5
∗
For a rectangular cross-secon:
= % H
F %
M F NMF
So the sffness is reduced. Combining the definions of the variables and the equaons of equilibrium condion, we have:
It’s been developed around 1750. It’s a special case but is more used because is simpler. It’s been broadly applied a=er the construcon of the Eiffel Tower (end of 19th century).
It redefines the constuve relaonship as follows:
U
So, there is infinite shear sffness and no angular slip.
The hypothesis of this theory are the same as before:
Since $ = 0 → −() + 'W' = 0 → = 'W'.
Being B6∗^ → ∞, the shear stress is indeterminate from the constuve equaons > = B6∗$ so it has to be derived by equilibrium from the indeterminate equilibrium equaons. The kinemac is described by the field of displacements only as a funcon of the deformed configuraon assumed by the axis line ( elasc line ). The relave elasc energy is: D =
This is more approximated than the Timoshenko model but is sufficiently accurate for us. We have:
This is the Euler-Bernoulli equaon , that describes the relaonship between the beam’s deflecon and the applied load.
It’s a calcula on approach to define deflec ons and rota ons of the beam.
Mohr theorem : the elas c line of a beam coincides with the fic ous moment diagram M* due to the fic ous load q*=M/EI equal to the curvature of the real beam.
The elas c line is the expression of the deforma on of the beam (small deforma ons). The curvature in small displacements is the second deriva ve of the deforma on v (while the first deriva ve is the slope ):
= ^ = −
Where I is the iner a to the sec on (related to the shape), E is the young modulus (related to the material), EI combined is the s ffness of the sec on. The deforma on v depends on x.
In a real beam:
^ = −^
In a fic ous beam:
∗ ^ = −
We change the variables but they’re the same expression (if I know the solu on for one, I can find the other).

We also need to change boundaries condi ons between the two worlds (real/fic ous):

Where we call the first integral ?? and the second one ?3. So it becomes:
?? + ?3 = 0 → = −
This is called compa bility equa on.
In our case, from the tables: ?? = (^) C^2 and ?3 = − (^) ED2 → = D
If we consider the shear deformability, we obtain:

Where J 3 = (^) MN2L" → < D^.
If we consider the case of imposed rota on/displacement at the fixed end, we just need to change ?3 using the tables:
In sta cally determined structures, temperature varia ons or imposed movements have no consequences in internal ac ons. We now solve a generic case:
It has 3 degrees of freedom and 6 degrees of constraint.
?? = =
So it’s symmetric.
The compa bility equa ons of the end rota ons are: R???^ + ?^ + ?3^ = 0 ?? + ^ + ^3 = 0 The flexibility matrix is: S = T
(^)? U^ which is symmetric and the main diagonal is posi ve.
Case with an external load:

Case with an imposed displacement:
?3 = − X 2 3 = X 2

A compa bility equa on is:

Where the green line is always posi ve, the yellow lines are symmetric and the blue lines are equal to zero.
Now it’s a determined system so we can solve it with equilibrium:
Where is the rota on (unitless) and k is the s ffness in N/m (∞ for clamping and 0 for hinge). Se = ?f (0 for clamping and ∞ for hinge) in m/N.
We consider an example:
Case 1: ?? = (^) C^2 + gh (^)? = (^) E^2
Case 2: ? = (^) E^2 = (^) C^2
Case 3: 3 = i

F = Jk @ Where @ is the deflec on and Jk is the s ffness (∞ for no support and 0 for rigid support). Sk =

We consider an example:

Because we called (^) = &*.
Because we called (^) 6 = &5* and 768^9 = / 5.
When k 0 becomes smaller, the contribu on of shear disappears.
E and G depend on the material; I and A* depend on the geometry.
Poisson coefficient: : = 0,15 ÷ 0,3 where 0,15 is usually concrete and 0,3 usually steel. This coefficient is related to the expansion on the orthogonal direc on. = 2.1 + :0 ≅ 2,3 ÷ 2,6^ we can take 2,5 (5/2). is tabled for each cross-sec on geometry.

It’s a method to solve stacally indeterminate structures, based on the Principle of Virtual Work, specifically on its sufficient condion: while the force method had the unknown of forces and moments, now the unknown are displacements and rotaons, so instead of downgrading the structure, now we add constraints.
We consider an example:
The structure has 3 degrees of freedom and 5 degrees of constraints, so it makes 2 degrees of redundancy. We now add constraints in rigid block, which is a parcular rotaonal spring with infinite sffness ( = ∞).
This respects compability (in the force method respected equilibrium).
It’s a superposion of 3 cases:
Case 1
Case 2
Case 3
We apply the Principle of Virtual Work (opposite of the force method):
Where the le3 side is the internal work, and the right side is the external. S represents the structure,
represents any possible variaon of , is the curvature, P is the real load (force), is the displacement
and this is mulplied by because otherwise it would be unitary.
It’s a mechanical model to study beams supported by soil. The equaon of the beam of 4th^ order, from Euler- Bernoulli, is:
−
Where EI is the sffness, v is the deformaon and P is the load.
We need to include the contribuon of the soil, so we consider a poron of the beam:
The soil is represented by translaonal springs.
We can isolate a small poron of the beam:
r is the reacon, connuous because the soil is everywhere. It can also be wri%en as:
Because the force is proporonal to displacement = .
The unit of measurement of k(x) is N/m^3 , because usually is N/m but soils is in 3 direcons, b and v are both in meters, and r(x) is in N/m.
The total load is the difference between the load and the reacon, so that we include the contribuon of the soil: = −
For foundaons, our field of applicaon, k(x) is constant because the type of soil is generally constant, even though in some cases the soil can change. The spring can’t transfer shear stress, so in this model we can’t reproduce cohesive soil (the one that transfers shear).
Typically, we use bilateral springs, that work both in compression and in tension (while unilateral work only in one direcon). We’ll verify that v > 0 , so the springs work in compression.
We now put the new P(x) in the Euler-Bernoulli equaon:
Where 4^ = → = ^ (^) , so it’s basically a rao between soil sffness and beam sffness.
This soil model is called WINKLER MODEL.
We obtain:
= +
Where vg is the v general (general integral of the associated homogeneous), and vp is the v parcular (parcular integral that depends on the load applied).
The soluon is: = !"#$%& '() + * +,' - + !#$%. '() + / +,' -
=
Where A, B, C and D are integraon constants, that can be found with 4 boundary condions.
We can define the wavelength λ , used to disnguish long and short beams, as:
λ = 22 → λ =
We need to find the boundary condions at the extremies of the beam. We look for these informaons:
