Question: Centroid location Subdividing the cross - section into the three simpler areas, A 1 , A 2 & A 3 , shown A 1 =

Centroid location
Subdividing the cross-section into the three simpler areas, A1,A2&A3, shown
A1=3in2,A2=4.5in2,A3=5in2
For the datum axis shown,
?bar(y)dat=(0.5A1+3.25A2+6A3)(in?(()()3))(A1+A2+A3)(im2)=3.69(in)
Moment of inertia
The moment of inertia of area A1 about z axis is given as IZ1=(3)1312+A1(3.19)2=30.778(in4)
(i) Moment of inertia of A2, about z-axis is given as
(ii) Moment of inertia of A3, about z-axis is given as
(in ?4)
(iii) Moment of inertia of the entire x-section, about z-axis is given as
Centroid location Subdividing the cross - section
