3. For the beam and loading shown in Figure 3, use two beam elements to: a) Determine the slopes at node 2 and node 3. b) Determine the reaction loads (force and moment) at node 1. c) Determine the vertical deflection at the middle of element 2. Assume EI to be constant throughout the beam. L/3 L/3 w = P/L 1 P X L 2 Figure 3. 2 L P 3 w/2 ????
