Question: Analyze the continuous beam shown in the figure, using Moment Distribution Method. Use pinned - end stiffness modification procedure for A B part. Find member

Analyze the continuous beam shown in the figure, using Moment Distribution Method.
Use pinned-end stiffness modification procedure for AB part.
Find member end moments and shears
Determine the reactions at the supports
Draw the shear and moment diagrams.
Assume A,B and C are rollers and D is fixed. Take EI as constant. (Use three decimal places in your calculations. Continue the iterations until you reach moment values below 0.1kNm.)(50 p )
2. Analyze the beam using Stiffness Method
(Assume A is fixed, B and C are rollers; take E=200GPa,I=200(106)mm4)
Assemble the K matrix and construct Q=K*D+QFER equation. Partition this equation into submatrices to find Du and Qsupportrections
Find unknown displacements Du.
Find Support Reactions and show them on free-body diagram of the beam.
Find Member-End -Forces using q=k*d+q0 and show them on member free body diagrams
Draw shear and moment diagrams
Analyze the continuous beam shown in the figure,
