A beam of channel section is subjected to a bending moment M having its vector at an angle θ to the z axis (see figure).
Determine the orientation of the neutral axis and calculate the maximum tensile stress σt and maximum compressive stress σc in the beam. Use the following data: C 8 x 11.5 sections, M = 20 k-in., tan θ = 1/3.
