deflection-hollow-rectangular-beams

This Mechanical Engineering Calculator is to compute the deflection of hollow rectangular beams. Enter the length, width, height and wall thickness and then select the material from the drop down menu. Click Result and read the beam deflection value in the output panel.

Beam Deflection Calculator

  • Length (Inches)

  • Width (Inches)

  • Height (Inches)

  • Wall Thickness (Inches)

  • Force (Pounds)

  • Material

  • Deflection (Inches)

  • Bending Stress (PSI)

Formula:

MI for hollow rectangle beams = (Width * Height3) - (Inside_width * Inside_height3) / 12
Deflection = (Length3 *Force / (3 * E * MI)
Bending Stress = (Force * Length) / (MI / (0.5 * hHeight)

 Where,
MI = Moment of Inertia
E = Modulas of Elasticity in psi
