5 Moment Distribution Method Prof, Hardy Cross.a professor in the University of Mlinois made fone of the greatest contributions in the analysis of statically indeterminate beams and frames with rigid joints in 1930. 5.1 BASIC PROPOSITIONS It will be found convenient to discuss the following basic propositions : (@) Propped cantilever AB fixed at A and propped at B and subjected t0 a couple M at B. Fig. 5.1 shows a propped cantilever AB fixed at A and freely supported at B and subjected toa clockwise couple M at B. Let R be the reaction at B. x 7 | , “ dagen oa Consider any secon distant x othe freon B. 7 2M, w te ssion FI = Re Integrating, 7 dy Re A gee, BoP ec, dy RP A vay 20 02 * mec, ‘ 2 ans RP RE Hence, the slope at any section is given by P ( 2) 2 Rr BRE age gt a2 2) Integrating again, (slope equation) fx?

M Hence, in onder the B.Myat Ais Gagging), te reacting M moment M, at A= (clockwise) But the applied moment at B = M (clockwise). M . The reacting moment ‘7 atthe end A due to the application ofthe applied moment at B is called the carry-over moment. This Principle is called the carry-over theorem and may be stated as follows: When a moment M is applied to produce rotation without translation atthe near supported end B ofa beam whose farther end Ais fixed, the carry-over moment M, at the father end is one- half the applied moment M and is ofthe Same sense (order) as that of the applied moment. Now consider the slope at B, given by i, = 2 fow consider he slope at B, given by i= Ter ‘oc the moment M which should be applied at 50 to produce a slope i a Bis given by. 4E1 way ‘Moment required to be applied at B, so as to produce unit 4EL slope at Bis equal to“) ‘This is called the stiffness ofthe member AB. Definition, When a structural member of uniform section is subjected 10 a moment at one end only, then the moment required ‘0 as to rotate that end to produce unit slope, is called the stiffness of the member. 4EI Hence forthe propped cantilever the stiffness = ~~ | MOMENT DISTRIBUTION METHOD (8) A freely supported beam AB subjected at a couple M at B.

A moment which is applied to 4 structural joint to produce rotation without translation gets distributed among the connecting members at the joint in the same proportion as their stffnesses. 205 Let members AO, BO, CO, DO and FO be connected rigidly at the joint O. See Fig. 5.3. 4 Fig. 53 Leta moment M be applied tothe joint 0. the members are all connected rigidly at O, the slope at O foreach member will be the same.

Let ly Ly Fy fy and Ig, be moments of inertia ofthese members, Let E,, E, Ey E,, and Es, be the moduli of Elasticity ofthese ‘members, LeU i das fs fat At ing Be the slopes for these members at 0.
