Course: ADVANCED STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS
Time: 90 min
Answer any three
Max. Marks: 15

1. Analyze the intermediate frame shown in figure below using Substitute Frame
Method for (a) Max. Design moments at the centre of span BC (b) Max. hogging
moment at support D
Frames are spaced at 3.5 m c/c; Live load = 3 kN/m2; Dead Load= 4 kN/m2
Self-weight of beams = 2 kN/m, Assume relevant data.
2. Analyze
the

continuous beam shown in the Fig by stiffness matrix method.

3. Analyze the continuous beam shown in the Fig above using flexibility matrix
method.
4. Calculate the plastic moment capacity required if the frame is of uniform section
throughout.
