4.3 Deformation in a Symmetric Member in Pure Bending

Assumptions of Beam Theory: 1. Any cross section to the beam axis remains plane

2. The plane of the section passes through the center of curvature (Point C).

Plane CAB is the Plane of Symmetry

The Assumptions Result in the Following Facts:

1. xy = xz = 0 xy = xz = 0

2. y = z = yz = 0

The only non-zero stress: x 0 Uniaxial Stress
