VI Sec. II. Continuous Beams 158. Continuous beams rest on more than two supportsand have more than one span. Consequently they are stati-cally indeterminate, and one or more elastic equations arenecessary for finding the reactions. An introduction to the. problem will be made in connection with the beam in Fig. 154,which supports a load of 10 lb. at I>. The tangent FG is drawnto the elastic curve through C at the middle of the span. Theproduct EI of the modulus of elasticity, and the moment ofinertia is assumed as unity, and the weight of the beam is notconsidered. The M-diagram is PQV. When the beam issupported at A and B only, the reactions R, the bending mo-ments M, the tangential deviations t, and the deflections A areas tabulated in the column i of Table I. Now suppose that an Sec. II RESTRAINED AND CONTINUOUS BEAMS 249 upward force Re = 1 lb. is applied at C. The shape of theelastic curve will be altered in accordance with the data givenin column 2. The moments are statically determinate; andif a new M-diagram is drawn to scale an angle will appear at S,
