Three-moment equation for spans (1) and (2)

¯
6A1 ā1 6A2 b 2
M1 L1 + 2M2 (L1 + L2 ) + M3 L2 + + = 0
L1 L2

Where,
M1 = 0

L1 = L2 = 4 m

6A1 ā1 M 8
2 2 2 2 2
= − (3a − L ) = − [ 3(2 ) − 4 ] = 8 kN ⋅ m
L1 L 4

6A2 ¯
b2
1 3 1 3 2
= wo L = (2)(4 ) = 32 kN ⋅ m
4 4
L2

Thus,
0 + 2M2 (4 + 4) + M3 (4) + 8 + 32 = 0

16M2 + 4M3 = −40 ← equation (1)

Apply three-moment equation to spans (2) and (3)

Where,
L2 = 4 m

L3 = 3 ft

M4 = 0

6A2 ā2
1 3 1 3 2
wo L = (2)(4 ) = 32 kN ⋅ m

L2

¯ 6(2)b
6A3 b 3 Pb
2 2 2 2 2
= (L − b ) = (3 − 2 ) = 20 kN ⋅ m
L3 L 3

Thus,
M2 (4) + 2M3 (4 + 3) + 0 + 32 + 20 = 0

4M2 + 14M3 = −52 ← equation (2)

From equations (1) and (2)

M2 = −1.6923 kN ⋅ m = −1692.3 N ⋅ m answer

M3 = −3.2307 kN ⋅ m = −3230.7 N ⋅ m answer
