Bending Deformation of a Straight Member
Cross section of a straight beam remains plane
when the beam deforms due to bending.
There will be tensile stress on one side and
compressive stress on the other side.

Bending Deformation of a Straight Member
Longitudinal strain varies linearly from zero at the
neutral axis.
Hooke’s law applies when material is homogeneous.
σ = Eε
Neutral axis passes through the centroid of the
cross-sectional area for linear-elastic material.

The simply supported beam has the cross-sectional area as shown. Determine the
absolute maximum bending stress in the beam and draw the stress distribution over
the cross section at this location.

Example 6.17
The beam has a cross-sectional area in the shape of a channel. Determine the
maximum bending stress that occurs in the beam at section a–a.
Solution:
The resultant internal moment must be computed about the beam’s neutral axis
at section a–a. Since the neutral axis passes through the centroid,
y=

Composite Beams
In reality, Beams constructed of two or more
different materials are referred to as composite
beams.
The transformation factor is a ratio of the moduli of
the different materials that make up the beam.
