Bending of Beams - Deflection - Stress - Strain

[bakoo]

Homework Statement

A beam of lengh is supported in a clamp system. distance between clamp is 1m. Loads applied at 250mm and 750mm. strain gauge fitted at 175mm with 100ohm resistance. Weight is applied at points a and b.

Homework Equations

Dont know?

The Attempt at a Solution

I am in need of the formulas please. I need to find out the theory for deflection, stress and strain and any other information i can extract.

Thanks
