Define pure bending in beams.
Think about the forces acting on the beam.
What is the neutral plane?
Focus on where no stress is experienced.
What does pure bending refer to?
Remember the definition.
True or False: The neutral plane is where the maximum compression occurs.
Think about the nature of stress distribution.
A cantilever beam is subjected to a uniform load. Calculate the locations of the neutral axis and the bending stresses at specific points.
Use the relationships between moment, stress, and position from neutral plane.
If a beam experiences a bending moment causing a maximum tensile stress of 15000 psi, determine the maximum compressive stress experienced.
Consider the symmetry of stresses in pure bending.
