Chapter 4: Bending

Chapter overview

We’ve looked at axial loading and torque loading in the previous chapters. Now, we shift our attention to bending. In this chapter, we’ll be looking at:

• C4.1 Shear Force and Bending Moment Diagrams - a quick recap; this was covered in Statics
• C4.2 Flexure Formula - quantifying the stress from bending loading
