Dear Sir,
I am a mechanical engineer.
I am trying to learn and develop skills in structural analysis and came across a problem of a 4 span continuous beam with all supports fixed.
I would like to know what method of analysis would be best suited to analyse this problem.
I have been reading about moment distribution method. Is this the right approach or should I just analyze this problem with some other method of analysis.
Your reply much appreciated. Thank you.
