Middle third rule- Middle quarter rule

  MIDDLE THIRD & MIDDLE QUARTER RULE CLASS NOTES It is applicable when bending is combined with axial loading.  Eccentric loading also cause bending and axial loading combined. In such cases, maximum  and minimum stresses will co-exist in the outermost fibers. Maximum stress σmax = M/Z + P/A= Maximum compressive Minimum stress σmin = M/Z –…
