Abstract | This paper is a theoretical approach to solve problems of horizontally curved beams Castiglione's theorem is applied to solve for the fixed end bending moments, maximum span moments and fixed end torsional moments. To calculate the vertical deflection at the midspan of the curved beam the moment-area method is used. Equations are derived and solved by digital computer for different loading conditions and geometrical conditions. A moment distribution method is introduced for solving the problem of a multi-span horizontally curved beam. |
