I need to figure deflection for a square 24" WxL. The load is distributed but I suspect calculating deflection as though it was a single 24" x 1" beam would be adequately close.
delta = PL^3/48EI
E = 70 gigapascals
L = .6 m
P = 13 newtons
How do I calculate I for either a 24" x 24" or 24" x 1"?
This chart of floor plate deflection indicates that a 24" x 26" x 1/4" plat would have a maximum deflection of .32" and I suspect that is a point load, not a distributed load.
