Average Shear Stress on Beam is the force per unit area that acts parallel to the cross-section of a structural element, such as a beam. And is denoted by 𝜏avg. Average Shear Stress on Beam is usually measured using the Megapascal for Pressure. Note that the value of Average Shear Stress on Beam is always positive. Typically, the value of Average Shear Stress on Beam is greater than 0.
