swiping the input

Hi there

I get some results from the balance moments

Now I need to calculate the carry over moments by taking one-half of the balanced moment at a joint and transferring it to the far end of the member connected at that joint. The carry-over moment has the same sign as the balanced moment.

It is it should look like this table

I have to repeat these steps, first calculating the balance moment and then the carry over moment unitl I get zeros in all rows ... and then calculate the final moment by adding all the moments in each joint. 

Like this table :

Can you show me how to do that in the attached sheet ?

Thanks

Hi Yusra

It is now morning and I have checked my sheet.  Two small alterations are required.

Hi,

Can you show the topography of the beams in your table example?

It does not appear to be one long continuous beam?

Cheers

hi there 

Thank you for replying 

the beam looks like this

all I need is to make the FEM moment in the left of the joint to be the right moment of the next step 

for example I need to use half of FSM AB as the carry_over_ BA .. 

carry_over AB= FSM A / 2 

carry_over BA=(FSM AB)/2 

carry_over BC= FSM BA / 2 

carry over CB = FSM  FSM CD /2

Hi Terry , 

Thank you for checking that again . Can I ask you something ?

Is this swiping the data of it is taking every scond number in Bal
