07 Cross-Sectional Properties

The document discusses the properties of cross-sectional areas that are important for analyzing the strength of structures, including: 1) Cross-sectional area, first and second moments of the area, and centroid location determine internal forces and stresses. 2) Composite areas are made of multiple simple areas and their properties are summed. 3) Principal axes correspond to maximum and minimum second moments of inertia and are found using product of inertia. 4) Mohr's circle graphically relates rotated coordinate systems to principal properties.

7 Properties of an Area

KL2103 Class 01 Semester I 2009/2010

Introduction
We have been able to determine the internal forces in statically determinate structures subjected to given loads. The internal forces will be the same regardless of the materials (steel, concrete, wood, etc.) or the size of the structural members. The strength of a structure, however, will depend on the material properties and cross-sectional properties of its members. Knowing the properties of a cross-sectional area is the first step to analyze the strength of a structure.

Cross-Sectional Area

When we cut a member of a structure and look in the direction perpendicular to the section line, we will see the cross-sectional area of the member.

First Moments of an Area


The first moments could be positive, zero, or negative, depending upon the position of the coordinate axes. The first moment of an area with respect to an axis that passes the centroid of the area is zero.

Moments of Inertia
Moments of inertia are always positive. Product of inertia Ixy can be positive, zero, or negative, depending upon the position of the coordinate axes. Ixy will be zero if either x or y is an axis of symmetry.

Parallel-Axis Theorem
I x = I x0 + d x2 A

IO = IC + d 2 A I xy = I x0 y0 + d x d y A

Mohrs Circle

A graphical way to transform Ix, Iy, and Ixy into Ix, Iy, and Ixy and the principal moments of inertia.
y y y y

Establish a coordinate system with horizontal axis I and vertical axis Ixy. Plot point O on I axis at a distance (Ix + Iy)/2 from the origin. This is the center of the Mohrs circle. Plot point A (Ix, Ixy). Draw the circle with O as the center and OA as the radius of the circle.

Mohrs Circle
Point C represents (Ix, Ixy) if the x-y axes are rotated with an angle counterclockwise. Point E is the maximum moment of inertia Imax or I1. Point F is the minimum moment of inertia Imin or I2. The angle is the rotation angle for x-axis to obtain the principal axis.
