Method of superposition example #1: simply supported beam

Check out https://www.engineer4free.com/structural-analysis for more free structural analysis tutorials. The course covers shear force and bending moment diagram review, method of superposition, moment area method, force method, displacement method, slope deflection method, 3 moment equation, and influence lines. This tutorial goes through a statically determinate slope & deflection example problem using the method of superposition. The simply supported beam has a point load and a distributed load, and we use a table of slopes/deflections for common beam loading to speed up the calculation. Here is the table from the video: https://www.engineer4free.com/extras/beam-slope-and-deflection-table you will also find similar tables in any mechanics of materials or structural analysis textbook.
