Chapter 10 Problem 10-38

Question

The beam is constructed from the two channels and two cover plates. If each channel has a cross-sectional area of \(A_c = 11.8\ in^2\) and a moment of inertia about a horizontal axis passing through its own centroid, \(C_c\), of \((\bar{I}_{\bar{x}})_{C_c} = 349\ in^4\), determine the moment of inertia of the beam about the x axis.

Solution

Step 1 of 7)

The first step in solving 10 problem number 38 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: The beam is constructed from the two channels and two cover plates. If each channel has a cross-sectional area of \(A_c = 11.8\ in^2\) and a moment of inertia about a horizontal axis passing through its own centroid, \(C_c\), of \((\bar{I}_{\bar{x}})_{C_c} = 349\ in^4\), determine the moment of inertia of the beam about the x axis.
From the textbook chapter Moments of Inertia you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
