Our University wants to construct a swimming pool inside the campus, for which they are in need of a diving board which must be one end fixed and other is free. That is to be made up of flexible composite material. The maximum allowable load at free end is 700 kN. The length of the cantilever beam is 1.6 m. The cross section of the beam is a hollow rectangular section. Outer rectangle of size 140 mm breadth and 110 mm depth with the overall wall thickness of 12 mm. Find the deflection at the free end and maximum slope in beam by neglecting self-weight of the diving board. Take E as 170 GPa.
