Sections can be funny things. It is important to note that you can make a section strong but not stiff and stiff but not strong. Let's explore why this is and when it...
Video-Stress Made Easy-Using Section Modulus to Compare Beam Types
Wouldn't it be nice to be able to compare the strength of a square tube with a round tube, or even and I-Beam? There is! https://youtu.be/fO8zjfjGafw
Video-Use Solidworks to Calculate Area Moment of Inertia Worry Free
Calculating the moment of inertia can be extremely difficult. The good news is the 3D modeling software can simplify this process greatly and make it pain...
Now that we know the shear, moment and area moment of inertia, let's combine them to find the bending stress. We'll even point out some things to watch out for. https://youtu.be/r-GcuQ-Q1ME
Video – Easily Develop Shear and Moment Diagrams for Beam Analysis
Shear-Moment Diagrams are an easy way to determine the internal working of any beam. Multiple beam loadings can be calculated through the law of superposition.See this article for more information:...
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...
