Question 2 [25 marks) The continuous beam shown in Figure Q2 is fixed at the ends A and D and simply supported at B and C. It has uniform flexural rigidity El. Using the moment distribution method: a) determine the moments at the supports of the beam for the loading shown in Figure Q4 assuming that there are no settlements of the supports; and [20 Marks) b) draw the bending moment diagram indicating the attained values at the supports and at midspans.
