Shear Stresses in Beams
In addition to normal stresses (Art. 3.16), beams are subjected to shearing. Shear stresses vary over the cross section of
Shear, Moment, and Deformation Relationships in Beams
The relationship between shear and moment identified in Eq. (3.72), that is, V = dM/dx, indicates that the shear force
