Loadings
MECHANICS OF MATERIALS
4.1 Introduction
• Transverse loading applied to a beam
results in normal and shearing stresses in
transverse sections.
Ar=p(1.52)/4 = 1.77cm2
av = Q/A=(F/2)/A
av = (4/2)/1.77 = 1.13 t/cm2

4.1 Introduction
• The shear stresses at the top and bottom surfaces of
the beam equal zero.
• Due to the effect of shear strain, a section that was
plane will no longer be plane but would deform.
• The effect of shear stresses on the distribution of
the normal stresses is, in most cases, insignificant.

4.1 Introduction
Vertical force produce vertical shear stress v
vertical faces
For equilibrium, 2 equal and opposite horizontal
forces must act on the horizontal faces of element,
which produce horizontal shear stresses h
Taking ΣMo, Then
v = h
Conjugate (complementary) stress:
shear stresses in vertical planes are always
accompanied by shear stresses in horizontal planes.

4.5. Shearing Stresses in Thin-Walled Members
• The variation of shear flow (q is the
resultant shear force per unit length)
across the section depends only on the

MECHANICS OF MATERIALS
Shearing Stresses in Thin-Walled Members
Shear flow for other shapes:
• The variation of shear flow across the section
depends only on the variation of the first moment.
• For a box beam, q grows smoothly from zero at
one extreme, building up to a max, and decreasing
back down to zero.
• The sense of q in the horizontal portions of the
section may be deduced from the sense in the
vertical portions or the sense of the shear V.
• Bodies with an axis of symmetry parallel to the
direction of shearing force, V, require the shear
flow goes to zero as axis of symmetry is
approached.
• If the shear flow hits a junction, the flow into the q qA3
A1
node must equal the flow out of the node at the
qA2
junction.
q A1 = q A 2 + q A3

Sample Problem 4.05
For the beam and loading shown, determine:(a) the location and magnitude of the maximum
transverse shear force 'Vmax',
(b) the shear flow 'q' distribution due to 'Vmax',
(c) the 'x' coordinate of the shear center measured from the centroid,
(d) the maximum shear stress and its location on the cross section.

MECHANICS OF MATERIALS
Sample Problem 4.05
For the beam and loading shown, determine: (b) the shear flow 'q' distribution due to 'Vmax',
(b) To obtain the shear flow: first draw the picture of the cross section.
Since the moment of inertia about the horizontal centroidal axis
(perpendicular to the direction of V) is already given, we can go
directly to the moment of area (S*) calculation. Begin at the free end of
the top right flange where we know the shear flow is zero, and
consider a portion of length s as shown in the figure below.
Write the equation for the shear flow in terms of the moment of area of the portion of length s.

MECHANICS OF MATERIALS
Sample Problem 4.05
Due to symmetry about the vertical centroidal axis, the shear flow
in the top left flange will be the same as the flow in the top right
(same magnitude, opposite direction).
Using the fluid flow analogy the flow coming into the web-flange
junction from flanges must leave the junction through the web.
To determine the shear flow variation along the web, isolate a section of
length w along the web as shown.
