Calculate the second moment of area about its centroidal x-axis for the L-shaped
section shown in Figure Q6. Assume the beam section is the solid and
homogeneous. Give your answer in mm4 to two decimal places.

Transcribed Image Text:In Figure Q6, a simply supported 3.50 m long beam (L) has a concentrated point load (F)
of 150 kN acting at the mid-point of the beam. The beam has a solid and homogeneous
L-shaped cross-section with the following dimensions:
h = 125 mm, t = 15 mm and w = 90 mm
