Inertia Equal to 1.2I For the member BC

**Problem-2**

Use the moment distribution method to solve the following problem:

1. **Find the reactions** at the supports.
2. **Draw the shear and moment diagrams**, highlighting the maximum values in each span.
3. **Indicate the points of inflection** on the diagrams.

Assume that the flexural rigidity (EI) is constant.

**Beam Diagram Description:**

- The beam is fixed at point A and simply supported at points B and C.
- The total span of the beam is 20 meters, divided into two segments: 8 meters from A to B and 12 meters from B to C.
- There is a uniform distributed load (UDL) of 5 kN/m acting over the entire length of the beam.
- There is a concentrated point load of 40 kN applied 8 meters from point A.

The solution should accurately reflect these conditions, detailing reactions at supports, shear forces, bending moments, and points of inflection on the beam.
