To compute for I y :

reference is from the leftmost part

Compute the moment of inertia by Inertia formula:

I =∑ ( I ¿ ¿ y + Ad2 )¿

where d = difference of distance between centroid of individual area and the centroid of whole
structure.

I =( I 1 + A1 ( d 1 )2 )+ ( I 2 + A2 ( d 2 )2 )+ ( I 3+ A 3 ( d 3 )2)

I y =( 1,215 x 10 3+1800 ( 0 2 ) ) + ( 5,833.333+700 ( 0 2) ) + ( 208.333 x 103+ 1000 ( 02 ) )

Example 3a-6. Determine the location of the Neutral Axis from the top and bottom of the beam y Tb
(from the bottom) and y Tt (from the top). Determine (Ix) and ( Iy ).

Solution:
Compute the total Area:

A1=60 ( 30 )=1,800 mm2


A2=25 ( 90 )=2,250 mm2
A3 =20 ( 80 )=1600 mm2

AT =5,650 mm2

A T y T = A 1 y 1+ A 2 y 2 + A3 y 3

5,650( y T )=1,800 ( y 1 ) +2,250 ( y 2 ) +1,600 ( y 3 )

5,650( y T )=1,800 ( 125 ) +2,250 ( 65 ) +1,600 ( 10 )

y Tb =68.54 mm from the bottom

y Tt =30+ 90+ 20−68.54=71.46 mm from the top

d 1= y 1 − y 1=125−68.54=56.46 mm

d 2= y T − y 2=68.54−65=3.54 mm

d 3= yT − y 1=68.54−10=58.54 mm

I =∑ (I ¿ ¿ x + Ad2 )¿

I x =( I 1 + A1 ( d 1 )2 )+ ( I 2+ A 2 ( d2 )2 ) + ( I 3 + A 3 ( d 3 )2 )
