Question: A continuous beam ABCD covers three spans, A B = 1 . 5 L , B C = 3 L and C D = L

A continuous beam ABCD covers three spans, AB=1.5L,BC=3L and CD=L as shown in figure. It carries uniformly distributed loads of 2W,W and 3 W per metre run on AB,BC and CD respectively. If the beam is of the same cross-section throughout, find the bending moments at supports B and C and the reactions on each support. Also plot bending moment and shear force diagrams.
