Beam Bending from Section Properties
Uniform homogeneous linear-elastic slender beam, constant EI, small deflection and principal-axis bending. Loads act in the bending plane without torsion. I is the area second moment about that axis, not polar or mass inertia; c is the farthest material fibre from the neutral axis.

Rectangular Beam Stress and Deflection
Analyze a solid rectangular beam under a downward point load plus a uniform full-span load. Choose simple supports with a central point load, or a left-fixed cantilever with a tip load.
