The activity provided valuable insights into the correlation between moment of inertia and beam deflection through the utilization of 3D CAD simulations. The collaborative effort of the team highlighted the impact of force application on cantilevers, revealing that a vertically designed beam experiences less deflection than its horizontally designed counterpart. The acquired knowledge, emphasizing the role of moment of inertia in reducing beam deflection, is anticipated to prove beneficial in addressing structural integrity challenges in future constructions.
