On the classification of degree 1 elliptic threefolds with constant   $j$-invariant
  We describe the possible Mordell-Weil groups for degree 1 elliptic threefold with rational base and constant $j$-invariant. Moreover, we classify all such elliptic threefolds if the $j$-invariant is nonzero. We can use this classification to describe a class of singular hypersurfaces in $\Ps(2,3,1,1,1)$ that admit no variation of Hodge structure.
