Transcribed Image Text:**Problem 3**
Using slope-deflection equations, determine the end moments of all members of the frame below. EI is constant and all members are axially rigid.
**Diagram Explanation:**
- The diagram depicts a rectangular frame with vertical members AB and CD. Each vertical member has a length of 3 meters.
- Horizontal member BC connects points B and C and is also 3 meters long.
- At point A, there is a fixed support on the left end of the frame.
- A uniformly distributed load of 30 kN/m is applied horizontally along member AB, directed from left to right.
- There is another fixed support at point D at the bottom of member CD.
This setup describes a structural frame subjected to loading conditions ideal for applying the slope-deflection method to find the internal moments at joints A, B, C, and D.
