Video – Beam Fundamentals: Understanding Loadings and Reactions
Almost all objects are loaded in bending. Knowing how to spot and then calculate the bending moment is critical. Identifying the bending stress brings lots of elements together. We need to know...

Video – How to Use Tables to Calculate Stress Concentrations
We’ve talked a little about stress concentrations, but now let’s dig into how they are calculated. Using commonly available tables, we can determine what the factor is and how to calculate the...
https://youtu.be/huG80V4dpWs Stresses in pin holes have a unique stress distribution. Here we will learn the classical approach to this and why we can make this assumption.
Video-Working with Axial Stresses and Avoiding Stress Concentrations
Axial stress is generally what we think of when we first hear the word “Stress”. Let’s do a quick review on all that axial stress is. https://youtu.be/V-i38A5v86c
Understanding how a material behaves is critical to how we design. Brittle materials like glass and chalk break suddenly, while ductile materials like steel will flex much more. Find out what causes...
