Section Properties
are properties specific to the geometry (dimensions) of the
setion used. These are different from material properties which
depend on what an object is made of. | |
Shear force
is а force acting along
the plane which passed through а body, | |
Shear Modulus
Shear modulus is the ratio of shear stress divided by the shear
strain in the elastic region. It can also be referred to as
modulus of rigidity or torsion modulus. | |
Shear stress | |
Shearing force
is the algebraic sum of all
the vertical forces to one side of any cross section of the
beam | |
Simple beam
is freely supported at both
ends one | |
Stability
is the property of the
structure to keep its initial position of
equilibrium | |
Statically determinate system
the case when there are
three equations of static equilibrium available for the system
and these are sufficient to determine the three
unknowns | |
Stiffness
is the ability of the
structure to resist the strains caused by the external forces
acting upon it | |
