Civil Engineering Department DCC40163 Theory of Structures TEST 1 (20 Marks) 30 Minutes Name Matrix No. Class Date

This document contains a test for a Theory of Structures course. It has two questions about calculating moments in continuous beams. Question 1 involves a beam with supports A, B, and C and asks to calculate the fixed end moments and final moments using moment distribution. Question 2 shows a beam with supports A, B, C, and D and asks to calculate the final moments at each point using moment distribution, given the distribution factors.
