Question

Transcribed Image Text:Please answer the following questions by referring to the below figure
calculate the location of the centroid, the second moments and product of area for the cross-section if;
•
D = 67 mm
•
B = 41 mm
t = 2.41 mm.
From these, calculate the position and orientation of neutral axis for pure bending in the vertical
plane (i.e. bending about a horizontal axis). Also calculate the directions of the principal second
moments of area.
Next, graph as scale diagram of the cross-section and plot the neutral axis on that diagram in the correct
location and indicate the direction of deflection for the same conditions
