  2. Shear force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_force

    40 tonne-force × 0.6 (to change force from tensile to shear) = 24 tonne-force. When working with a riveted or tensioned bolted joint, the strength comes from friction between the materials bolted together. Bolts are correctly torqued to maintain the friction. The shear force only becomes relevant when the bolts are not torqued.

  3. Shear stress - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_stress

    The resulting shear stress, τ, deforms the rectangle into a parallelogram. The area involved would be the top of the parallelogram. Shear stress (often denoted by τ, Greek: tau) is the component of stress coplanar with a material cross section. It arises from the shear force, the component of force vector parallel to the material cross section.

  4. Shear and moment diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_and_moment_diagram

    Shear and Bending moment diagram for a simply supported beam with a concentrated load at mid-span. Shear force and bending moment diagrams are analytical tools used in conjunction with structural analysis to help perform structural design by determining the value of shear forces and bending moments at a given point of a structural element such as a beam.

  5. Bending moment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bending_moment

    Shear and moment diagram for a simply supported beam with a concentrated load at mid-span.. In solid mechanics, a bending moment is the reaction induced in a structural element when an external force or moment is applied to the element, causing the element to bend.

  6. Shear strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_strength

    A shear load is a force that tends to produce a sliding failure on a material along a plane that is parallel to the direction of the force. When a paper is cut with scissors, the paper fails in shear.

  7. Stress (mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stress_(mechanics)

    Assuming that the direction of the forces is known, the stress across M can be expressed simply by the single number , calculated simply with the magnitude of those forces, F and the cross sectional area, A. = Unlike normal stress, this simple shear stress is directed parallel to the cross-section considered, rather than perpendicular to it.

  8. Neutral axis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neutral_axis

    T = shear force Q = first moment of area of the section above/below the neutral axis w = width of the beam I = second moment of area of the beam This definition is suitable for the so-called long beams, i.e. its length is much larger than the other two dimensions.

  9. Glossary of structural engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_structural...

    The loads applied to the beam result in reaction forces at the beam's support points. The total effect of all the forces acting on the beam is to produce shear forces and bending moments within the beam, that in turn induce internal stresses, strains and deflections of the beam. Beams are characterized by their manner of support, profile (shape ...
