Question
**Problem Statement:**

Determine the value of the bending moment in column 3 (in kip-ft, absolute value) if the bay width is 20 ft, the story height is 10 ft, and the load P is 3.4 kips.

**Diagram Explanation:**

The diagram displays a structural frame with three vertical columns labeled 1, 2, and 3. A horizontal beam connects the tops of these columns. An external horizontal load P is applied at the top of column 3. 

- Columns are depicted as green vertical lines.
- Black triangular symbols at the bottom represent the supports.
- The load P is depicted as a red arrow pointing to the right, applied at the top of column 3.

**Given Values:**

- Bay Width = 20 ft
- Story Height = 10 ft
- Load P = 3.4 kips

**Calculated Bending Moment:**

The absolute value of the bending moment in column 3 is calculated to be 0.34 kip-ft.
