The cross section of an unbalanced wideflangebeam is shown in the figure. Derive the followingformula for the distance e from the centerlineof the web to the shear center S: e = [3tf(b22-b12)] / [htw+6tt(b1+b2)] Also, check the formula for the special cases of achannel section (b1 = 0 and b2 =b) and a doublysymmetric beam (b1 =b2 =b/2).

Question
The cross section of an unbalanced wideflange
beam is shown in the figure. Derive the following
formula for the distance e from the centerline
of the web to the shear center S:
e = [3tf(b22-b12)] / [htw+6tt(b1+b2)]
Also, check the formula for the special cases of a
channel section (b1 = 0 and b2 =b) and a doubly
symmetric beam (b1 =b2 =b/2).
