6.1 Introduction
So far, we have been concerned with finding distributions of shear force and bending
moment in statically determinate beams (statically indeterminate beams will be discussed later).
Irrespective of the type of beam involved, however, shear forces and bending moments represent
only the resultants of the internal stress distributions in the beam. In general, both normal and
shear stresses are involved, and are associated with the bending moment and shear force,
respectively. We must determine these stresses if we are to assess the ability of the beam to
support loads applied to it.

Assumptions:
1. Straight beams with constant cross section
area, (x axis is along the longitudinal axis).
2. The y axis is an axis of symmetry of the
cross section. (the x-y plane is the plane of
symmetry). In other words, the cross
section is symmetric with respect to the x-y
plane.
3. All the loads acts in the x-y plane
pure bending constant bending moment over at least part of the beam

The above equation establishes the expression for the basic kinematic hypothesis for the flexure
theory. However, it is clear that the strain in a bent beam varies along the beam depth linearly
with y, information is lacking for locating the origin of the y axis (so far, we know the distance y
is from the neutral surface). With the following Hookes law and an equilibrium equation, this
problem is resolved in the next section.

d A = E y d A = E y d A
Since
dA = 0
ydA = 0
Therefore, the z-axis passes through the centroid of the cross section
Since the y-axis is an axis of symmetry, the y-axis passes through the centroid of the cross
section
O (intersection of y and z axes) is the centroid of the cross section.

A relationship for shear stress is obtained from the equilibrium requirement of force
balance along the longitudinal axis of the beam.

The strips are connected by gluing. The slipping
for the most part is prevented by the shear stresses
developed in the glue.

Assumptions: (1) The direction of the shear stresses is parallel to the shear force V;
(2) the distribution of shear stress is uniform across the width (b) of the beam.
