... computed reactions at E and C. In particular , note that BC is a two - force member since only two forces act on it . For this reason the reaction at C must be horizontal as shown . Since BA and BD are also two - force members , the ...
... computed , it means that end A will move away from end D ( the bar elongates ) , whereas a negative result would indicate that end A moves toward end D ( the bar shortens ) . The double subscript notation is used to indicate this ...
... computed about the neutral axis . We symbolize its value as I. Hence , Eq . 6-11 can be solved for σmax and written ... computed about the neutral axis of the cross section I = the moment of inertia of the cross - sectional area computed ...
