A rectangular section thin-walled beam of length L and breadth 3b, depth b and wall thickness t is built in at one end (Fig. P.20.7). The upper surface of the beam is subjected to a pressure which varies linearly across the breadth from a value p_0 at edge AB to zero at edge CD. Thus, at any given value of x the pressure is constant in the z direction. Find the vertical deflection of point A.
