The formula to calculate effective section modulus is:
\[ S = \frac{I}{c} \]
Where:
The effective section modulus is a geometric property of a cross-section used in the design of beams or flexural members. It is a measure of the strength of a section and is used to predict the flexural stress in a beam. The higher the section modulus, the more resistant the section is to bending. It is calculated by dividing the moment of inertia of the section by the distance from the neutral axis to the extreme fiber. This property is crucial in structural engineering and helps in determining the load-carrying capacity of beams and other structural elements.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ S = \frac{500}{10} = 50 \text{ units}^3 \]
The Effective Section Modulus is 50 units^3.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ S = \frac{750}{15} = 50 \text{ units}^3 \]
The Effective Section Modulus is 50 units^3.
