Internal forces in any cross section are
equivalent to a couple. The moment of the
Symmetric Member in Pure Bending
equivalent to a couple. The moment of the
couple is the section bending moment.
From statics, a couple M consists of two equal
and opposite forces.
The sum of the components of the forces in any
direction is zero.
MEC411 – MECHANICS OF MATERIALS Ch 4 - 2
The moment is the same about any axis
perpendicular to the plane of the couple and
zero about any axis contained in the plane.

Transverse Shear
Beams generally support both shear and
moment loading. Shear, v is the result of a
transverse shear-stress distribution that acts
over the beam’s cross section.
Due to complementary property of shear,
associated longitudinal shear stresses also act
MEC411 – MECHANICS OF MATERIALS Ch 4 - 14
along longitudinal planes of beam.
CHAPTER 4

FACULTY OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERING
DIVISION OF ENGINEERING MECHANICS
If a typical element removed from the interior
point on the cross section it will be subjected to
both transverse and longitudinal shear stress.
Transverse Shear
both transverse and longitudinal shear stress.
For transverse shear, shear-strain distribution
throughout the depth of a beam cannot be easily
expressed mathematically. Thus, we need to
develop the formula for shear stress indirectly
using the flexure formula and relationship
MEC411 – MECHANICS OF MATERIALS Ch 4 - 15

between moment and shear ;

Deflection of Beam
When a beam with a straight longitudinal
axis is loaded by lateral forces, the axis is
deformed into a curve, called the deflection
curve of the beam. Deflection is thecurve of the beam. Deflection is the
displacement in the y-direction of any point
on the axis of the beam.
The calculation of deflections is an
important part of structural analysis and
design.
