7-1: If the wide-flange beam is subjected to shear of V = 20 kN determine shear stress on web at A.

In this video, we solve a transverse shear stress problem for a wide-flange beam subjected to a shear force of V = 20 kN. The goal is to determine the shear stress on the web at point A and then show the shear-stress components on a small volume element at that location. This problem is very important in Strength of Materials and Mechanics of Materials because it helps explain how shear stress is distributed in the web and flanges of an I-section (wide-flange beam). Topics covered Transverse shear stress in beams Shear stress formula: τ = VQ / It Shear stress in the web of a wide-flange beam First moment of area Q Moment of inertia I Shear-stress components on an element Why complementary shear stresses appear This video is useful for: Civil Engineering students Mechanical Engineering students Strength of Materials course Mechanics of Materials course FE Exam preparation GATE Engineering exams Structural analysis beginners Watch till the end to understand both the numerical solution and the physical meaning of shear stress components at point A. #TransverseShear #ShearStress #StrengthOfMaterials #MechanicsOfMaterials #CivilEngineering #MechanicalEngineering
