The depth of section is major axis of that section. Prependicular to that depth is minor axis of that section.

I think it helps you to understand.

What is Minor axis of a rectangular column or beam?

The minor axis of a rectangular column or beam is the line that goes through the center. The minor axis will be shorter than the major axis.


What is meant by flexural axis?

basically,when you have bending suppose you take beam(I-section) and an axis along the beam now, 1.curl you fingers in the direction of bending 2.point the thumb perpendicular to your fingers 3.thumb would give you the flexural axis(bending axis)


What is the major axis for bending?

In a beam or length of material, we generally consider the longitudinal axis as the major axis for bending. But torsion will bend the material from the vertical, will twist it around that longitudinal axis. And lateral forces will bend the material across it axis of latitude.


What is the perpendicular bisector of transverse axis?

It is the conjugate axis or the minor axis.


Difference between unsymmetrical and symmetrical bending?

Symmetrical bending occurs when a beam is loaded uniformly along its length, resulting in bending stresses that are equal on both sides of the beam's neutral axis. Unsymmetrical bending occurs when a beam is loaded unevenly, causing different magnitudes of bending stress on opposite sides of the beam's neutral axis.


What is the area of an ellipse with the major axis 20 m and the minor axis 10 m?

What are the two axes of an ellipse called?

The major axis and the minor axis.


What are the major and minor axis of a hyperbola?

The major axis is the axis that cuts, or goes between the two vertices of the hyperbola. The minor axis is perpendicular to the major axis and is an axis of symmetry. If the hyperbola is defined by: x^2/a^2 - y^2/b^2=1 where x^2 is x squared. Then the major axis is 2a units long, and the minor axis is 2b units long.


What is the internal bending moment formula used to calculate the bending stress in a beam?

The internal bending moment formula used to calculate bending stress in a beam is M I / c, where M is the bending moment, is the bending stress, I is the moment of inertia, and c is the distance from the neutral axis to the outermost fiber of the beam.

What is the semi minor axis length of earths elliptic orbit?

The equation to find the semi-minor axis of elliptical orbit is b=a*sqrt(1 - e^2), where b is the semi-minor axis, a is the semi-major axis, and e is the eccentricity. Therefore, using 17.8AU as the semi-major axis and 0.967 as the eccentricity, the semi-minor axis is calculated to be 4.53AU or 6.62*10^11 m.
