Replace flexural stiffness with the more common term bending stiffness; clearly differentiate from flexural rigidity

The statically indeterminate beam shown in the figure is to be analysed.
 
The beam is considered to be three separate members, AB, BC, and CD, connected by fixed end (moment resisting) joints at B and C.
 
*Members AB, BC, CD have the same [[Span (architecture)|span]] <math> L = 10 \ m </math>.
*Flexural rigidities are EI, 2EI, EI respectively.
