STRESSES IN BEAMS
It is convenient to imagine a beam to be
composed of an infinite number of thin
longitudinal fibers. Each longitudinal fiber is
assumed to act independently of every other fiber.
The beam of 𝐹𝑖𝑔. 7 − 1, for example, will deflect
downward and the fibers in the lower part of the
beam undergo elongation, while those in the
upper part are shortened. These changes in the
lengths of the fibers set up stresses in the fibers.
Those that are elongated have tensile stresses
acting on the fibers in the direction of the
longitudinal axis of the beam, while those that are
shortened are subject to compressive stresses.
4
NEUTRAL SURFACE/AXIS
There always exists one surface in the beam
containing fibers that do not undergo any
extension or compression, and thus are not
subject to any tensile or compressive stress. This N.S.
surface is called the neutral surface of the beam.
The intersection of the neutral surface with any
cross section of the beam perpendicular to its
longitudinal axis is called the neutral axis. All fibers
on one side of the neutral axis are in a state of
tension, while those on the opposite side are in
compression.

NORMAL STRESSES IN BEAMS
Let us find a relationship between the bending
moment acting at any section in a beam and the
bending stress at any point in this same section.
Assume Hooke’s law holds so that all fibers in the
beam are in the elastic range of the material.

NORMAL STRESSES IN BEAMS
Next, let us consider two adjacent cross sections
𝑎𝑎 and 𝑏𝑏 marked on the side of the beam, as
shown in 𝐹𝑖𝑔. 7 − 3. Prior to loading, these sections
are parallel to each other. After the applied
moments have acted on the beam, these sections
are still planes but they have rotated with respect
to each other to the positions shown, where 𝑂
represents the center of curvature of the beam.
Evidently the fibers on the upper surface of the
beam are in a state of compression, while those
on the lower surface are in tension.

NORMAL STRESSES IN BEAMS
Let us consider a beam of rectangular cross
section, although the derivation actually holds for
any cross section which has a longitudinal plane of
symmetry. In this case, these longitudinal, or
bending, stresses appear as in 𝐹𝑖𝑔. 7 − 4.
Let 𝑑𝐴 represent an element of area of the cross
section at a distance 𝑦 from the neutral axis. The
stress acting on 𝑑𝐴 is given by the above
expression and consequently the force on this
element is the product of the stress and the area
𝑑𝐴, that is,
𝐸𝑦
𝑑𝐹 = 𝑑𝐴
𝜌
12
NORMAL STRESSES IN BEAMS
However, the resultant longitudinal force acting
over the cross section is zero (for the case of pure
bending) and this condition may be expressed by
the summation of all forces 𝑑𝐹 over the cross
section. This is done by integration:
𝐸𝑦 𝐸
𝑑𝐴 = 𝑦𝑑𝐴
𝜌 𝜌
13
NORMAL STRESSES IN BEAMS
Evidently 𝑦𝑑𝐴 = 0. However, this integral
represents the first moment of the area of the
cross section with respect to the neutral axis,
since 𝑦 is measured from that axis. But, from
statics we may write 𝑦𝑑𝐴 = 𝑦𝐴, where 𝑦 is the
distance from the neutral axis to the centroid of
the cross-sectional area. From this, 𝑦𝐴 = 0, and
since 𝐴 is not zero, then 𝑦 = 0.

HORIZONTAL SHEARING STRESS
In a beam loaded by transverse forces The theory to be developed applies
acting perpendicular to the axis of the only to a cross section of rectangular
beam, not only are bending stresses shape. However, the results of this
produced parallel to the axis of the analysis are commonly used to give
beam but shearing stresses also act approximate values of the shearing
over cross sections of the beam stress in other cross sections having a
perpendicular to the axis of the beam. plane of symmetry.
Let us express the intensity of these
shearing stresses in terms of the
shearing force at the section and the
properties of the cross section.
