    Calculating Bending Stress & Moment of Inertia for Tapered Cantilever Beam

    Hi SteamKing, Thank you for your help. Taking the cross-section at the wall I can calculate the bending stress at that point. However, this led to more questions. 1) What would be the equation to determine the deflection at the very tip? I don't believe δ=(FL3)/(3EI) since beam...

    Calculating Bending Stress & Moment of Inertia for Tapered Cantilever Beam

    Hello all, I need to calculate the bending stress of a tapered cantilever beam. However, I would like to know how to calculate the moment of inertia. For a uniform shape beam, I know the Ix=(bh3)/12, but since h changes throughout the length of the beam how would inertia, I, be...
