A parabolic arch hinged at the springings and crown has a span of 20 m. The central rise of the arch is 4 m. It is loaded with a uniformly distributed load of intensity 2 kN/m on the left 8 m length. Calculate (a) the direction and magnitude of reaction at the hinges,

4. A horizontal beam ABCD, is carried on hinged supports and is continuous over three equal spans each of 3 m. All the supports are initially at the same level. The first span is loaded with central point load of 8 kN, second span is loaded with a UDL of intensity 2 kN/m and the third span is loaded with a point load of 9 kN acting 2 m from right support. Using the slope deflection method, plot the bending moment diagram, if the support A settles by 10 mm, B settles by 30 mm and C settles by 20 mm. Take I = 2.4 × 106 mm4 and E= 2 ×105 N/mm2 . [16]
