Question: Solve the following problem, then use your solution to answer the questions asked. Given the beam with loading shown, use the Moment - Distribution method

Solve the following problem, then use your solution to answer the questions asked.
Given the beam with loading shown, use the Moment-Distribution method to determine
the member end moments. Then, use this information to construct the shear and
moment diagrams for this beam and its loading.
EI= constant
