A 3 hinged circular arch consists of portion AC of radius 3m and rise of the hinge C with respect to the left abutment is 3m. The right portion is of radius 8m and the horizontal distance BC is 7m. If the concentrated load of 10kN acts at 6m from the left hand end, determine the reaction of the hinges and find the maximum bending moment on the arch?
