Moment Coefficients for Continuous Beams and Slabs

Limitations:
Adjacent spans should not differ by more than 20% of the shorter span.
Ratio of live load to deal load should not exceed 3.
The loads should be uniformly distributed
Positive moment:

a) If discontinuous end is unrestrained
b) If discontinuous end is integral with support

D) Check ACI limitations

a) LL/DL = 4.8/5.3 = 0.91 < 3 ok
b) L-s /s = 0/2.2 = 0< 0.2 ok
c) Load is uniformly distributed ok
