A steel hollow structural section (HSS) flexural member is subjected to a load of P=23 kips as shown. The cross-sectional dimensions of the shape as also shown are d=12.25in.,b=9.75in.,t=0.30in.,xH=3.75in., and xK=3.25in. Using a=19.25in., determine the principal stresses and the maximum shear stress acting at points H and K, as shown. Show these stresses on an appropriate sketch for each point.
Calculate the moment of inertia for the entire cross-section about its z centroidal axis
