Question

If depth of any rectangular beam if reduced by half then deflection will becomes​

Answer 1

Answer:

Deflection of any beam is inversely proportional to the moment of inertia. Moment of inertia of cross section is mainly governed by the depth of the section. For rectangular sections, deflection decreases by 1/8th of the original deflection when you double the depth.
