  1. Manager 2015 Paper 2 (Civil) · Q108 · Strength of Materials & Structural Analysis · Strength of Materials

    A beam has a circular cross section. If the plane of loading on the beam does not coincide with the centroidal axis of the beam, the member is subjected to ______.

    1. axial force, shear force and bending moment
    2. torque, shear force
    3. torque, shear force and bending moment
    4. axial force, shear force and torque
    Show answer

    Answer: (3) torque, shear force and bending moment

    A transverse load always produces shear force and bending moment; when its plane does not pass through the axis (shear centre) of the section, the eccentricity also produces a twisting moment (torque). There is no axial force because the load is transverse.
