Problem 4: Use the slope-deflection method to analyze the structure.
4.1) Determine the magnitude and direction of the support reactions.
4.2) Draw the shear and bending moment diagrams for the beam. Identify points where the shear crosses
zero (don't do this for the moment). Identify local maximums and minimums in the moment diagram.
4.3) Over time, the soil supporting the structure experiences some differential settlement. This causes the
support at C to experience a settlement of 25 mm . Recalculate the magnitude and direction of the
support reactions taking this into account.
4.4) If the supports at A and E was designed with a maximum moment capacity of 120 kN -m, will the
support settlement create issues with the design of the fixed supports? If so, will the structure become
unstable and collapse? Provide a brief discussion.
