Horizontal Shear Flow Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Shear Stress = (Shear Force*Cross Sectional Area*Distance from Neutral Axis)/Area Moment of Inertia
τ = (V*A*y)/I
This formula uses 5 Variables

Variables Used

Shear Stress - (Measured in Pascal) - Shear Stress, force tending to cause deformation of a material by slippage along a plane or planes parallel to the imposed stress.
Shear Force - (Measured in Newton) - Shear Force is the force which causes shear deformation to occur in the shear plane.
Cross Sectional Area - (Measured in Square Meter) - The cross sectional area is the breadth times the depth of the structure.
Distance from Neutral Axis - (Measured in Meter) - Distance from Neutral Axis is measured between N.A. and the extreme point.
Area Moment of Inertia - (Measured in Meter⁴) - Area Moment of Inertia is a moment about the centroidal axis without considering mass.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Shear Force: 24.8 Kilonewton --> 24800 Newton (Check conversion here)
Cross Sectional Area: 3.2 Square Meter --> 3.2 Square Meter No Conversion Required
Distance from Neutral Axis: 25 Millimeter --> 0.025 Meter (Check conversion here)
Area Moment of Inertia: 36000000 Millimeter⁴ --> 3.6E-05 Meter⁴ (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

τ = (V*A*y)/I --> (24800*3.2*0.025)/3.6E-05

What is Horizontal Shear Stress?

The Horizontal Shear Stress is (normally) a maximum at the neutral axis of the beam. This is the opposite of the behavior of the Bending Stress which is maximum at the other edge of the beam, and zero at the neutral axis.

How to Calculate Horizontal Shear Flow?

Horizontal Shear Flow calculator uses Shear Stress = (Shear Force*Cross Sectional Area*Distance from Neutral Axis)/Area Moment of Inertia to calculate the Shear Stress, The Horizontal Shear Flow formula is defined as shear stress per unit distance along the axis of the built-up section acting on a plane at a distance measured from the neutral axis. Shear Stress is denoted by τ symbol.

How to calculate Horizontal Shear Flow using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Horizontal Shear Flow, enter Shear Force (V), Cross Sectional Area (A), Distance from Neutral Axis (y) & Area Moment of Inertia (I) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Horizontal Shear Flow calculation can be explained with given input values -> 5.5E-5 = (24800*3.2*0.025)/3.6E-05.
