Hi autism,
Thanks for the clarification. Can the second moment of mass be used to find the defection in the member under a load? If so, where can I find the equations?
Again, thanks for your help!
Hi,
I have a track section composed of structural members to analyze. I drew the member completely in 3D using AutoCad and used mass properties to obtain the moment of inertia. That being said, my question is this... Why are the units given in lbs*in^2 and what, if any, conversion is there...
