Flip Class Moment Distribution Method
Flip Class Moment Distribution Method
Moment Distribution Method (MDM): Stiffness and carry over factors – Distribution factors
– Analysis of continuous beams with and without sinking of supports – Portal frames.
Objectives:
Analyze continuous beams with support settlement
Analyze portal frames
Compute support reactions; draw shear force and bending moment diagrams
Introduction
This method was developed by Hardy Cross in 1930’s at the University of Illinois. In 1930’s
analyzing tall structures which are indeterminate was a complex problem. Hardy Cross a
brilliant American Engineer developed this method to solve continuous beams and portal
frame. Later this method was dominated by powerful Finite Element Method. MDM is a
simple method.
