The three-moment equation gives us the relation between the moments between any three points in a
beam and their relative vertical distances or deviations. This method is widely used in finding the reactions
in a continuous beam.
For the application of three-moment equation to continuous beam, points 1, 2, and 3 are usually unsettling
supports, thus h1 and h3 are zero. With E and I constants, the equation will reduce to
