Abstract :

Beam is a structural element which is subjected to transverse loading. Generally, different types of beams such as simply supported beam, cantilever beam, fixed beam, overhanging beam etc are used in construction and infrastructure development. In this research paper an attempt is made to used simply supported beam with different cross section and finite element analysis on ANSYS Software 20 was carried out to investigate the stress and deflection of structural steel beam in which various cross section is used. Structural steel is widely used in construction area because of its excellent durability and mechanical properties. The primary function of beam is to resist the deformation. Six different cross section of beam which is circular section, hollow circular section, square section, hollow square section, rectangular cross section and I-section were considered in this modelling. Stress and deflection of simply supported beam were analysed to know the highest resistanceto deformation at varying loads of 8kN to 14kN.
