AI

This chapter focuses on the stresses experienced by beams subjected to transverse loads, detailing the shear forces and bending moments that arise from such loads. It covers the concepts of pure and nonuniform bending, as well as the complexities of shear stress distribution in various beam shapes. The chapter also addresses the impact of axial loads on beam stress and explores the concepts of load eccentricity and how it affects the neutral axis in beams.
