$($Problem$-1)$: For the shown beam, assume $\backslash ($ E I $\backslash )$ is constant for all spans. The supports at $\backslash ($ A $\backslash )$ and $\backslash ($ D $\backslash )$ are fixed. And:

a$)$ Use the Moment$-$distribution Method to calculate the member end moments.

b$)$ Use the Slope$-$Deflection Equations to calculate the member end moments.

c$)$ Compare the results from part $($a$)$ and $($b$)$ and draw the shear and bending moment diagrams
