LEARNING OUTCOMES
This topic explains the standard symbols for bending stresses.
It also involves the position of neutral axis and second
moment of area for standard cross section of beams and
also determines stress in such beam cross-section.
On completion of this topic, students should be able to:
This layer is stretched because it becomes longer. Thus, it’s been strained and strain, ε for this layer is;
Substitute Rearrange;
BENDING THEORY NEUTRAL – DERIVATION OF
FLEXURAL FORMULA
** Stress and strain vary along the length of the beam
depending on the radius of curvature.
At any section of the beam, the fibre stress will be maximum at the surface farthest from the neutral
axis such that;
where c is the distance from NA to outer fiber (remember that the outer fibre will experienced
maximum stress) and , is called the section modulus of the beam. Although the section
modulus can be readily calculated for a given section, values of the modulus are often included in
tables to simplify calculations.
BENDING THEORY NEUTRAL – STANDARD
SECTIONS
The value of I, second moment of area for a given section may be
determined by formulae as in Figure 3.4. However, many beams are
manufactured with standard section such as steel beams. From British
Standard, the properties of standard steel beams and joists have been
given in the standard code. The following formulae apply to standard
shapes.
BENDING THEORY NEUTRAL – ELASTIC SECTION
MODULUS, Z
The section modulus (Ze) is usually quoted for all standard sections and
practically is of greater use than the second moment of area. Strength of
the beam sections depends mainly on the second modulus. The section
modulii of several shapes are calculated below (Figure 3.5);
Beam Section Properties
• The maximum normal stress due to bending,
• This equation also indicates that for a given allowable stress and a max
bending moment the section modulus Ze must not be less than the ratio
( ). If the allowable stress of the material in tension is the same as in
compression the use of a section which is symmetrical about the neutral
axis is preferred and the material from which the beam is made should
be ductile. Structural steel is a good example of a ductile material.

Note that the formula is associated with a particular point in a beam and it is averaged
across the thickness, t, and hence it is accurate only if t is not too great. For uniform cross
sections, such as a rectangle, the shear stress takes on a parabolic distribution, with τ = 0 at
the outer fibre and τ =τ max at the neutral surface (where y = 0 and σ = 0) as shown in Figure
3.8. The maximum shear stress for certain uniform cross section geometries can be calculated
as tabulated in Figure 3.9.
