engineering recuitment GATE CE 2023-24 Test Series Strength of Materials Shear Stress and Bending Stress
A horizontal beam with square cross-section is simply supported with sides of the square horizontal and vertical and carries a distributed loading that produces maximum bending stress σ in the beam. When the beam is placed with one of the diagonals horizontal the maximum bending stress will be
1
\(\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt2}\)
2
σ
3
2σ
4
\(\sqrt2\sigma\)
