JULY 3RD, 1941. FLIGHT I CONTINUOUS BEAMS Two Unequal Spans Let one span be less than half the overall span (L) of the beam and equal in length to KL, where K is a con- venient constant, as shown in Fig. 5. UNIFORMLY LOADED CONTINUOUS BEAM FIG. 5. ISO 10O 050 A OVER Z SPAN5. 1 L KL I'L u/ = UNIFORMLY OlSTRlBUTt C :D LOAD. Then, by the Theorem ot Three Moments, the Fixing Moment (Mt) at B is such that :— 2^ j_ = —- (K3 + (1 — k)a)4 M» = ~ (I _ 3K + 3K2) = .125 (1 - 3K + 3K2)WL We can give K various values up to .50 and so find the coefficients of M6, and this has been done in Table III and the values of M „ plotted against K in Fig. 6.
