Question: A continuous beam ABCDE, with uniform flexural rigidity throughout has roller supports at B , C and D , a built - in support E

A continuous beam ABCDE, with uniform flexural rigidity throughout has roller supports at B,C and D, a built-in support E and an overhang AB as shown in Figure. It carries a uniformly distributed load of intensity of 2kNm on AB and another of intensity of 3kNm over BCDE. In addition to it, a point load of 8kN is placed midway between C and D. The span lengths are AB=2m,BC=CD=DE=5m. Obtain the support moments by the moment distribution method and sketch the B.M. diagram giving values at salient points.
