Y Axis Moment of Inertia in Load and Resistance Factor Design for Buildings Formulas

Y Axis Moment of Inertia is a geometric property of a cross-section that measures its resistance to bending about the y-axis, also known as the second moment of area about the y-axis. And is denoted by I_y. Y Axis Moment of Inertia is usually measured using the Millimeter⁴ per Millimeter for Moment of Inertia per Unit Length. Note that the value of Y Axis Moment of Inertia is always positive.

FAQ

What is the Y Axis Moment of Inertia?

Y Axis Moment of Inertia is a geometric property of a cross-section that measures its resistance to bending about the y-axis, also known as the second moment of area about the y-axis. Y Axis Moment of Inertia is usually measured using the Millimeter⁴ per Millimeter for Moment of Inertia per Unit Length. Note that the value of Y Axis Moment of Inertia is always positive.

Can the Y Axis Moment of Inertia be negative?

No, the Y Axis Moment of Inertia, measured in Moment of Inertia per Unit Length cannot be negative.

What unit is used to measure Y Axis Moment of Inertia?

Y Axis Moment of Inertia is usually measured using the Millimeter⁴ per Millimeter[mm⁴/mm] for Moment of Inertia per Unit Length. Meter⁴ per Meter[mm⁴/mm], Centimeter⁴ per Micrometer[mm⁴/mm], Centimeter⁴ per Centimeter[mm⁴/mm] are the few other units in which Y Axis Moment of Inertia can be measured.
