1. A continuous beam ABC of constant moment of Inertia carries a load of 10 kN in mid span AB and
a central clockwise moment of 30 kN-min span BC. Span AB = 10 m and span BC = 15 m. Find
the support moments and plot the shear froce and bending moment diagram.
2. Analyze the continuous beam ABCD shown in the figure below using theorem of three moments.
Draw SFD and BMD.
3. A continuous beam ABC of uniform section with span AB and BC as 4 m each, is fixed at A and
simply supported at B and C. The beam is carrying a uniformly distributed load of 6 kN/m run
throughout its length. Find the support moments and the reactions using theorem of three moments.
Also draw SFD and BMD.
5. A continuous beam ABCD 18 m long is loaded as shown in figure below. During loading support
