FAQ

What is the Horizontal Shearing Stress?
Horizontal Shearing Stress is defined as all the forces induced(bending moment, shear stress) in the upper part of the section. Horizontal Shearing Stress is usually measured using the Megapascal for Stress. Note that the value of Horizontal Shearing Stress is always positive.
Can the Horizontal Shearing Stress be negative?
No, the Horizontal Shearing Stress, measured in Stress cannot be negative.
What unit is used to measure Horizontal Shearing Stress?
Horizontal Shearing Stress is usually measured using the Megapascal[MPa] for Stress. Pascal[MPa], Newton per Square Meter[MPa], Newton per Square Millimeter[MPa] are the few other units in which Horizontal Shearing Stress can be measured.
