One end of the cantilever beam is fixed to a supporting structure (such as a wall or column), while the other end is free and unsupported. This structural design allows the cantilever beam to extend beyond its support point, creating an unobstructed space, which is very suitable for applications that require a wide view or barrier-free area.
Cantilever beam features include:
1. Fixed end: One end of the beam is firmly fixed to the supporting structure and can resist bending moment and shear force.
2. Free end: The other end of the beam has no support and can move or deform freely.
3. Force analysis: When a cantilever beam is subjected to load, the fixed end will produce the largest bending moment and shear force, while the free end will not be subjected to force.
4. Deformation characteristics: Under the action of load, the cantilever beam will bend and deform, and the deflection of the free end is the largest.
