CE3503 Lecture8

The document discusses the moment distribution method for analyzing indeterminate structural systems. It involves calculating stiffness factors and distribution factors for members, then determining fixed-end moments and unbalanced moments at joints. The method works by iteratively distributing and balancing moments at joints through successive approximations until member rotations converge. Examples are provided to demonstrate solving continuous beams using the moment distribution approach.

MOMENT DISTRIBUTION METHOD

INDETERMINATE SYSTEMS

Force Method: Solves for unknown (redundant) forces using


compa<bility equa<ons.

Slope-deflec<on Method: Solves for unknown joint rota<ons and


deflec<ons using equilibrium equa<ons.

Moment Distribu<on Method: Solves the equa<ons by the method of


successive approxima<ons.
MOMENT DISTDIBUTION METHOD
MOMENT DISTDIBUTION METHOD

1.  Calculate s<ffness factors and distribu<on factors for various


members in a con<nuous beam.
2.  Define unbalanced moment at a rigid joint.
3.  Compute distribu<on moment and carry-over moment.
4.  Derive expressions for distribu<on moment, carry-over moments.
5.  Analyse con<nuous beam by the moment-distribu<on method.
MOMENT DISTDIBUTION METHOD

•  The method begins by assuming each joint of a structure is fixed.

•  By unlocking and locking each joint in succession, the internal


moments at the joints are “distributed” & balanced un<l the joints
have rotated to their final or nearly final posi<ons.
MOMENT DISTDIBUTION METHOD

Sign Conven<on
Clockwise moments that act on the member are considered posi<ve
MOMENT DISTDIBUTION METHOD

Fixed-end Moment (FEM)


The moments at the “walls” or fixed joints of a loaded member are called fixed-end
moments.
These moments can be determined from the table, depending upon the type of
loading on the member.
MOMENT DISTDIBUTION METHOD

Member S<ffness Factor


the amount of moment M required to rotate the end A of the beam
θA = 1 rad.
MOMENT DISTDIBUTION METHOD

Member S<ffness Factor


the amount of moment M required to rotate the end A of the beam
θA = 1 rad.
MOMENT DISTDIBUTION METHOD

Joint S<ffness Factor


If several members are fixed connected to a joint and each of their far
ends is fixed, then by the principle of superposi<on, the total s<ffness
factor at the joint is the sum of the member s<ffness factors at the
joint.

Carry-over Factor
Moment M at the pin induces a moment of M’ = 1/2 M at the wall.
The carry-over factor represents the frac<on of M that is “carried
over” from the pin to the wall. Hence, in the case of a beam with the
far end fixed, the carry-over factor is 1/2. The plus sign indicates both
moments act in the same direc<on.
