PROPERTIES OF PLANE SECTIONS
The following symbols will be used:
- Area
- Coordinates of centroid of section in coordinate system.
- Moment of inertia about an axis through the centroid parallel to the axes.
- Radius of gyration of the section with respect to the centroidal axes parallel to the axes.
- Product of inertia with respect to the centroidal axes parallel to the axes.
- Moment of inertia with respect to the axes shown.
- Radius of gyration of the section with respect to the axes shown.
- Product of inertia with respect to the axes shown.
- (same as ) Polar moment of inertia about an axis passing through the centroid.
- Radius of gyration of the section about the polar axis passing through the centroid.
- marks the centroid.
