Question

A composite section is formed from a L 40x40x6, two L 80x40x6 and a 150mmx8mm plate as shown [consider the y-axis to be at the edge of the longer leg of the upper left L80x40x6]. Compute its moments of inertia about the centroidal x-axis and about the centroidal y-axis. (Answer for this question onwards.) Tabulate your solution for this.

for L 40x40x6, area = 4.48 sq.cm, x = 1.2 cm, y = 1.2 cm, thickness = 6mm, Ix= 6.33 cm4, ly = 6.33 cm4;

for L 80x40x6, area = 6.89 sq.cm, x=0.88 cm, y = 2.85 cm, thickness= 6mm, Ix 44.9 cm4, ly = 7.6 cm4;
