Statically indeterminate beams 1 10 2013 3 . Introduction In previous charters we considered the stresses in the bars caused by axial loading and torsion. Here we introduce the third fundamental loading bending. When deriving the relationship between the bending moment and the stresses causes we find it again necessary to make certain simplifying assumptions. We use the same steps in the analysis of bending that we used for torsion in chapter 6. 1 10 2013 4 . Introduction Classification of Beam Supports 1 10 2013 5 . Introduction Limitation 1 10 2013 6 .

Bending stress The positive bending moment causes the material within the bottom portion of the beam to stretch and the material within the top portion to compress. Consequently between these two regions there must be a surface called the neutral surface in which longitudinal fibers of Neutral axis the material will not undergo a change in length. 1 10 2013 10 .
