The section modulus of a cross section of a beam is obtainedby dividing the moment of inertia of that section by the distanceof the outermost fibre to the neutral axis. This distance is markeda in fig. 3. The neutral axis is a line coinciding with an imaginaryplane called the neutral surface which is supposed to pass throughthe center of gravity of the cross section. To find the distance of the center of gravity of the section tothe bottom line marked b in fig. 3, we can make use of thefollowing rule:. Fig. 3.

The result is distance b. We therefore have: ^ J 2 • / 4 ■ -^^s + ?
