deflections in deep beams with web openings

i need to find an equation or method to determine deflections in a deep beam with web openings due to both shear and bending forces. where can i find this? where would be a good place to start looking?

I would be very surprised if you will be able to find a suitable formula of general application. This is one case where I would go immediately to some suitable FE sofware.

I have not had the chance to pull these references so I can't tell you if they have the answers to your questions.

If you do get a chance to pull these references, please let us know your findings.
