Concept  

As per IS 456:2000, Clause 22.5.1, for beams of uniform section c/s which supports substantially uniformly distributed loads over three or more spans which do not differ by 15% of longest.

The coefficients for moments and shear forces are tabulated as follows:

Table 12 Bending Moment Coefficients

(Clause 22.5.1)

Type of Load

Span Moment

Support Moment

Near Middle of End Span

At Middle of Interior Span

At Support Next to the End Support

At Other Interior Supports

(1)

(2)

(3)

(4)

(5)

Dead load and imposed load (fixed)

\( + \frac{1}{{12}}\)

\(+ \frac{1}{{16}}\)

\( - \frac{1}{{10}}\)

\(- \frac{1}{{12}}\)

Imposed load (not fixed)

\(+ \frac{1}{{10}}\)

\(+ \frac{1}{{12}}\)

\( - \frac{1}{9}\)

\(- \frac{1}{9}\)

NOTE – For obtaining the bending moment, the coefficient shall be multiplied by the total design load and effective span.
