STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Multiplying Factor = 1/(1-((Weight on Roof*Beam Span^3)/(pi^4*Modulus of Elasticity*Moment of Inertia)))
C_p = 1/(1-((W*l^3)/(pi^4*E*I)))
This formula uses 1 Constants, 5 Variables

Constants Used

pi - Archimedes' constant Value Taken As 3.14159265358979323846264338327950288

Variables Used

Multiplying Factor - Multiplying Factor is the factor used for multiplying stresses and deflections under existing loads to determine stresses and deflections under existing loads plus ponding.
Weight on Roof - (Measured in Newton) - Weight on Roof is the weight used to find the multiplying factor which is considered as the weight of 1 in water (25.4 mm) on roof area supported by the beam.
Beam Span - (Measured in Meter) - Beam span is the effective span of the beam.
Modulus of Elasticity - (Measured in Pascal) - The Modulus of Elasticity is the measure of the stiffness of a material. It is the slope of stress and strain diagram up to the limit of proportionality.
Moment of Inertia - (Measured in Meter⁴) - Moment of Inertia is a property of a two-dimensional plane shape which characterizes its deflection under loading. It is also known as the second moment of area or second moment of inertia.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Weight on Roof: 55 Newton --> 55 Newton No Conversion Required
Beam Span: 3000 Millimeter --> 3 Meter (Check conversion here)
Modulus of Elasticity: 50 Megapascal --> 50000000 Pascal (Check conversion here)
Moment of Inertia: 900000 Millimeter⁴ --> 9E-07 Meter⁴ (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

C_p = 1/(1-((W*l^3)/(pi^4*E*I))) --> 1/(1-((55*3^3)/(pi^4*50000000*9E-07)))

Evaluating ... ...

C_p = 1.51235003429219

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

1.51235003429219 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

1.51235003429219 ≈ 1.51235 <-- Multiplying Factor
