Solid Mechanics: Cantilever Beams & Loads on Neutral Axis

[milan666]

Hi,
In a cantilever beam with a load on the free end, at a point on the neutral axis, will the normal stresses (due to bending stress and axial stress) be zero? Or am i wrong? And if i was to draw a Mohr circle for that point at the neutral axis, would the center of the circle be the origin? I am assuming that because there are only shear stresses at that point.

Thanks

Agreed, as long as the long is perpendicular to the beam axis.
