CONCLUSION
Based on actual results I can conclude that the shorter the distance or the length of the span
the stiffer the span and the longer the length the lesser the stiffness and this result in
difference in distribution factors. We got imbalanced moments because of the rust in the
beam, and on the other side we did not use 0.5 hanger.
