FAQ

What is the Moment of Inertia of Area of Section?
Moment of inertia of area of section is a geometric property that measures how a cross-section’s area is distributed relative to an axis for predicting a beam’s resistance to bending and deflection. Moment of Inertia of Area of Section is usually measured using the Meter⁴ for Second Moment of Area. Note that the value of Moment of Inertia of Area of Section is always positive. Typically, the value of Moment of Inertia of Area of Section is greater than 0.
Can the Moment of Inertia of Area of Section be negative?
No, the Moment of Inertia of Area of Section, measured in Second Moment of Area cannot be negative.
What unit is used to measure Moment of Inertia of Area of Section?
Moment of Inertia of Area of Section is usually measured using the Meter⁴[m⁴] for Second Moment of Area. Centimeter⁴[m⁴], Millimeter⁴[m⁴] are the few other units in which Moment of Inertia of Area of Section can be measured.
