1. The document provides formulas for calculating slope, deflection, and maximum deflection for various beam types under different loading conditions. It gives the equations for cantilever beams with concentrated loads, uniformly distributed loads, and varying loads. It also provides the equations for simply supported beams with these different load types and with couple moments applied. The equations relate the beam properties like length, load location, and intensity to the resulting slope and deflection values.
