PROPERTIES OF PLANE SECTIONS

The following symbols will be used:

  • A = Area
  • x 0 , y c = Coordinates of centroid of section in x y coordinate system.
  • I x c , I ν c = Moment of inertia about an axis through the centroid parallel to the x y axes.
  • r x c , r y c = Radius of gyration of the section with respect to the centroidal axes parallel to the x y axes.
  • I x c y c = Product of inertia with respect to the centroidal axes parallel to the x y axes.
  • I x , I y = Moment of inertia with respect to the x y axes shown.
  • r x , r y = Radius of gyration of the section with respect to the x y axes shown.
  • I x y = Product of inertia with respect to the x y axes shown.
  • I P (same as J O ) = Polar moment of inertia about an axis passing through the centroid.
  • r P = Radius of gyration of the section about the polar axis passing through the centroid.
  • G marks the centroid.
