where 𝑉 is the shear force acting to the cross-section of the beam and 𝐼 is the moment of
inertia of the cross-section.
5. Show that maximum shear stress in a circular cross-section of a beam is 4/3 times the
average shear stress. Maximum shear stress occur at neutral axis of the cross-section.
Practice the following problems from the book of Mechanics of Materials by Gere and
Timoshenko.
