6 FDM for Analysis of Prestressed Bridge under Truck Loading and Own Weight Given the shown bridge with a varied cross-section. An HS 20 truck at the far-left end of the bridge to create the maximum shear at the support. Required: Use FDM to compute the following: 1- The deflection, bending moment, and the shear force diagram due to the own weight. 2- The deflection, bending moment, and the shear force diagram due to the truck at the shown position. 3- The deflection, bending moment, and the shear force diagram due to the truck positioned at the far-right end. Discuss the results
