Define core of section.

1 Answer

Answer :

Core of a section: Core of the section is that portion around the centroid in within which the line of action of load must act, so as to produce only compressive stress is called as core of the section. It is also defined as the region or area within which if load is applied, produces only compressive resultant stress. If Compressive load is applied, the there is no tension anywhere in the section.

emax = d/8

e = Core of section
