Physics · Mechanics of Solids
Which of the following statements correctly describes the effect of eccentric loading (single eccentricity) on a structural member?
- 1Eccentric loading causes bending stress but no axial stress.
- 2Axial and eccentric loadings produce the same stress distribution in the member.
- 3Eccentric loading induces only axial stress in the member.
- 4Eccentric loading results in both axial and bending stresses due to the offset from the centroidal axis.✓
Correct answer
Eccentric loading results in both axial and bending stresses due to the offset from the centroidal axis.
