@Pradip.

Very useful, You gave the right explanation, Thank you.

Where is it mentioned that it is supported at edges or free at supports. Because condition change will change the numeric value.

max +ive radial moment = wr^2/16.
max -ive radial moment = 2wr^2/16.

So,

Max radial moment at center = wr^2/16+2wr^2/16= 3wr^2/16
This is fix at ends (when loaded sqaure/paraboloid shape).

1 hinged support
At center ----- at support
Max radial moment : 3wr^3/16 ----- 0.
Max circumferential : 3wr^2/16 ----- 2wr^2/16.

2 Fixed support
Max radial moment : 1 wr^2/16 ----- 2wr^2/16.
Max circumferential : 1wr^2/16 ----- 0.

For simply supported M = 3wR^2/16.
For fixed M = wR^/16.

Circumferential moment = W/16 [ R^2 (3+u)-r^2 (1+3u)]
At centre r=0 and Poisson's ratio (u) = 0.2-0.25 for concrete which is very small. So, the moment becomes;

M= W/16 [R^2 (3+0)],
= 3WR^2/16.

I think option (A) is correct .

Circumferential moment = W (R2-r2)/16.
At centre r=0,
=W R2/16.
