so is the following correct:
New centroid axis is y-y.
To calculate bending about y-y,
Sum the following two moments about the new axis:
Ibeam + A x d12
+
Iplate + A x d22
I don't think it's a shear center problem, the load is just simple bending (not offset).
So using the parallel axis theorem, do I find the new centroid, then calculate the moment of inertia of each section, about this new centroidal axis?
Thanks for your response!
What's the 'selected' plane?
In the case of above:
The I-beam and the flat bar have planes that are parallel, but for them to be coincident they would have to be superimposed on-top of one another (not possible)...?
Hi Guys,
Just wondering how to work out the bending of a beam, that is reinforced with a flat-bar?
Or any piece of material for that matter (angle, C-section, ect.)
Example:
If you had a standard I-beam 30mm high, that had a piece of flatbar stuck to it's side - 30mm high (fixed to top and...
