Calculate Plastic Modulus Guide

The document calculates the plastic modulus of a cross-section made up of 10 sections. It provides the section properties including area, distance from the bottom, moment of inertia, and distance to the plastic neutral axis. It then calculates the total moment of inertia, distances to the elastic and plastic neutral axes, and the plastic section modulus, which is found to be 2.253x10^6 mm^3. It also checks that the plastic neutral axis lies within each section.
