Bending Moment in Strength of Materials Formulas

The Bending Moment is the reaction induced in a structural element when an external force or moment is applied to the element, causing the element to bend. And is denoted by M. Bending Moment is usually measured using the Kilonewton Meter for Moment of Force. Note that the value of Bending Moment is always negative.
