Determine the moments at each joint of the frame, then draw the moment diagram for member BCE. Assume B, C, and E are fixed connected and A and D are pins. E = 29(10^3) ksi.

A W1422 acts compositely with a 4-inch-thick floor slab whose effective width b is 90 inches. The beams are spaced at 7 feet 6 inches, and the span length is 30 feet. The superimposed loads are as follows: construction load = 20 psf, partition load = 10 psf, weight of ceiling and light fixtures = 5 psf, and live load = 60 psf, A992 steel is used, and fc=4 ksi.
