Beam Stiffness (Let I = 60)

Formula: $K = \dfrac{I}{L}$

$K_{12} = 60/10 = 6$

$K_{23} = 60/12 = 5$

$K_{34} = 60/10 = 6$

Distribution Factors

Formula: $DF = \dfrac{K}{\Sigma K}$

$DF_{12} = 0$

$DF_{21} = \dfrac{6}{6 + 5} = 6/11$

$DF_{23} = \dfrac{5}{6 + 5} = 5/11$

$DF_{32} = \dfrac{5}{5 + 6} = 5/11$

$DF_{34} = \dfrac{6}{5 + 6} = 6/11$

$DF_{43} = 0$

Fixed End Moments

$\begin{align}
FEM_{12} & = -\dfrac{w_oL^2}{12} \\
& = -\dfrac{100(10^2)}{12} \\
& = -\dfrac{2500}{3} ~ \text{lb}\cdot\text{ft} \\
& = -833.33 ~ \text{lb}\cdot\text{ft}
\end{align}$

$\begin{align}
FEM_{21} & = \dfrac{2500}{3} ~ \text{lb}\cdot\text{ft} \\
& = 833.33 ~ \text{lb}\cdot\text{ft}
\end{align}$

$\begin{align}
FEM_{23} & = -\dfrac{w_oL^2}{12} - \dfrac{PL}{8} \\
& = -\dfrac{100(12^2)}{12} - \dfrac{800(12)}{8} \\
& = -2400 ~ \text{lb}\cdot\text{ft}
\end{align}$

$FEM_{32} = 2400 ~ \text{lb}\cdot\text{ft}$

$\begin{align}
FEM_{34} & = -\dfrac{w_oL^2}{12} \\
& = -\dfrac{100(10^2)}{12} \\
& = -\dfrac{2500}{3} ~ \text{lb}\cdot\text{ft} \\
& = -833.33 ~ \text{lb}\cdot\text{ft}
\end{align}$

$\begin{align}
FEM_{43} & = \dfrac{2500}{3} ~ \text{lb}\cdot\text{ft} \\
& = 833.33 ~ \text{lb}\cdot\text{ft}
\end{align}$
