Elastic analysis prior to redistribution
Elastic analysis prior to redistribution
(OP)
I need to analyse a propped cantiliver concrete beam but cannot find any information regarding the calculation of the end moment and the span moment. Any help would be appreciated.

RE: Elastic analysis prior to redistribution
A easy way to analyze propped cantilevers by hand calculations is to superimpose the moments, shears, deflections and reactions of the unpropped cantilever under the applied loads and under the reaction load at the prop that produces a final deflection of zero at the prop.
Hope this would help.

If you are describing a true propped cantilever with no overhanging element the solution can be found using formulae easily found in most good structural text books.
