NORMAL STRESS
A Normal stress will occur when a member is placed in
tension or compression.This is the stess when a loaded
member is loaded by axial force.
Bending Stress
Bending stress is a more specific type of normal stress.
The stress caused by the bending moment is known as
Bending stress or Flexure stress. The relationship
between these stresses and the bending moment is
called the flexure formula.
In a beam,the resistence offered by the internal
stresses to the bending moment is called bending
stress.
Bending (looking at radial sections)
Bending Stress Equation
The comprehensive assumptions of bending stress
equations are as follows:
The beam in question has to be straight.Besides it has
to possess a constant cross-section without
aberrations.
The construction of the beam has to be with a
homogeneous material.It must also possessa
symmetrical longitudinal plane.
The bending moment equation derivation states that
the point of the applied load has to lie on its
longitudina plane of symmetry.
Bending Stress Equation
One of the most essential assumptions in the bending
equation is that failure should be a result of buckling
and not bending.
‘E’ or the elastic limit remains constant for both
tension and compression.
The plane cross-section continues to be a plane
throughout the bending process.
Factors or Terms
M=Bending Moment
I=Moment of Inertia exerted on the bending axis.
σ = Stress of the fibre at a distance ‘y’ from the
neutral/centroidal axis.
E= Young’s modulus of beam material
R= Curvture radius of this bent beam.
Elastic Section Modulus
Elastic Section Modulus can be defined as the ratio of
moment of inertia of any fiber to the distance of the
fiber from neutral axis.
Mathematically, Z= I/Ymax
Here,
Ymax = Distance of top or bottom fiber from
neutral axis.

It is a graphical representation of bending stress with
its characteristics of distribution of the stresses along
the considered beam.
