Abstract This study focus on stress calculation in a cantilever beam by FEA &Analytical techniques. To know the value of maximum load bearing capacity of any particular beam this study has been generated. Structural analysis is foremost requirement in a design process. Also when we perform FEA analysis of any structure we cannot blindly trust on its result. If we don’t have any past result data of that structure, it became difficult for us to know the deviation of result. For that purpose we may require analytical calculation result in order to compare result value of FEA. Hence in this study a range of load values are applied on cantilever beam by both techniques. Later graph has been plotted for different load values & verification of results is carried out.
