  2. Section modulus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Section_modulus

    The plastic section modulus is calculated as the sum of the areas of the cross section on either side of the PNA, each multiplied by the distance from their respective local centroids to the PNA. [16] = + where: A C is the area in compression A T is the area in tension y C, y T are the distances from the PNA to their centroids. Plastic section ...

  3. Elastic properties of the elements (data page) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elastic_properties_of_the...

    Elastic properties describe the reversible deformation (elastic response) of a material to an applied stress. They are a subset of the material properties that provide a quantitative description of the characteristics of a material, like its strength. Material properties are most often characterized by a set of numerical parameters called moduli.

  4. Flexural rigidity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flexural_rigidity

    The plate elastic thickness (usually referred to as effective elastic thickness of the lithosphere). As flexural rigidity of the plate is determined by the Young's modulus, Poisson's ratio and cube of the plate's elastic thickness, it is a governing factor in both (1) and (2). = Young's Modulus. = elastic thickness (~5–100 km) = Poisson's Ratio.

  5. Timoshenko–Ehrenfest beam theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timoshenko–Ehrenfest_beam...

    The Timoshenko–Ehrenfest beam theory was developed by Stephen Timoshenko and Paul Ehrenfest [1][2][3] early in the 20th century. [4][5] The model takes into account shear deformation and rotational bending effects, making it suitable for describing the behaviour of thick beams, sandwich composite beams, or beams subject to high- frequency ...

  6. I-beam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I-beam

    The farther a given amount of material is from the neutral axis, the larger is the section modulus and hence a larger bending moment can be resisted. When designing a symmetric I-beam to resist stresses due to bending the usual starting point is the required section modulus. If the allowable stress is σ max and the maximum expected bending ...

  7. ASTM A992 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASTM_A992

    ASTM A992. ASTM A992 steel is a structural steel alloy often used in the US for steel wide-flange and I beams. Like other carbon steels, the density of ASTM A992 steel is approximately 7850 kg/m 3 (0.2836 lb/in 3). ASTM A992 steel has the following minimum mechanical properties, according to ASTM specification A992/A992M.

  8. Four-point flexural test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four-point_flexural_test

    The four-point flexural test provides values for the modulus of elasticity in bending , flexural stress , flexural strain and the flexural stress-strain response of the material. This test is very similar to the three-point bending flexural test. The major difference being that with the addition of a fourth bearing the portion of the beam ...

  9. Flexural modulus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flexural_modulus

    Flexural modulus. In mechanics, the flexural modulus or bending modulus[1] is an intensive property that is computed as the ratio of stress to strain in flexural deformation, or the tendency for a material to resist bending. It is determined from the slope of a stress-strain curve produced by a flexural test (such as the ASTM D790), and uses ...
