Arched Beams

The picture shows the difference between three segments (four new nodes) and fifteen segments (sixteen new nodes) in moment distribution. In theory, the moment should be zero, but you can see there are strong peaks at the transitions in the case of three segments. In the case of fifteen segments, the peaks are barely visible and the moments are close to zero. Here, you have to select an appropriate value according to the requirements (accuracy or speed).
