Shear center is the point through which the applied loads must pass to product bending without twisting. Shear center is the location in a cross-section where no torsion occurs when flexural shears act in planes passing through that location. In other words, forces acting through the shear center will cause no torsional stresses to develop.

Shear center is the point through which the applied loads must pass to product bending without twisting. Shear center is the location in a cross-section where no torsion occurs when flexural shears act in planes passing through that location. In other words, forces acting through the shear center will cause no torsional stresses to develop.

Overview Overview
Basic Properties Shear center  · Neutral axis  · Center of gravity  · Sectorial coordinate
Advanced Properties Torsion constant  · Sectorial moment of intertia (warping constant)
