Question $2$

A statically indeterminate beam is loaded with uniformly distributed load from A to C and

concentrated load at joints B$,$ D$,$ and D as illustrated in Figure Q$2.$ The total length of the beam

is $18$ m and support at A is pinned, C and F are roller.

i$)$ Identify the indeterminacy of the beam element.

ii$)$ Using the Moment Distribution Method determine the support reactions at A$,$B$,$ and E of the

beam.

iii$)$ Sketch the shear force and bending moment diagram.

Support C settles by $4\mathrm{.}0$ mm and EI$=100\mathrm{.}0$ xx$10^(9)$kNm$^(2)$
