A beam is simply supported at both ends and subjected to two forces P. See the following figure for dimensions. The bending rigidity of the beam is EI. (1) Sketch the shear force and bending moment diagram. (2) Use the method of integration to calculate the maximum deflection of the beam, and the vertical deflection at the location where the force P is applied to.
