Question: ( b ) A beam ABCD as shown in Fig. Q . 1 ( b ) is foed at support A and is continuous over

(b) A beam ABCD as shown in Fig. Q.1(b) is foed at support A and is continuous over simple supports at B and C. Span CD is an over-hang with a point load of 120 kN acting at unsupported end D Span BC has a point load 750 kN at mid-span. The spans AB,BC and CD have the same EI value and are 8m,8m and 4 m respectively. With the use of Moment Distribution Method, determine the following: (i) Moments at supports A, B and C.(ii) Draw the bending moment diagram and (ii) Draw the shear force diagram.
