Question
**Problem 2**

### Diagram Analysis

The image depicts a schematic of a horizontal beam with marked temperature changes and structural properties.

#### Beam Layout

- **Supports and Points:**
  - Point A: A fixed support is located at the left end of the beam.
  - Point B: A roller support on the right end at 60 inches above the base level.
  - Point C: A marked point at the center of the beam.

- **Distances:**
  - The total length of the beam is 40 feet, divided into two equal segments of 20 feet each between Points A and C, and Points C and B.

#### Temperature and Material Properties

- **Temperature:**
  - \( T_1 = 200^\circ F \) at Point A.
  - \( T_2 = 50^\circ F \) at Point C.

- **Material Properties:**
  - Elastic Modulus \( E = 29000 \) ksi.
  - Moment of Inertia \( I = 300 \) in\(^4\).
  - Coefficient of Thermal Expansion \( \alpha = 6 \times 10^{-6} \) /°F.

This diagram likely represents a structural thermal analysis scenario, where temperature variations across the beam are analyzed in conjunction with its mechanical properties.

Step 1: introduction to question

Given that :-

The two-span continuous beam has following specifications :

I = 300 i n to the power of 4

E = 29000 ksi

alpha space equals space 6 space cross times space 10 to the power of negative 6 end exponent divided by F


Required that :-

Determine the moment at point C if point C settles 1.5 in downwards.
