Click For Summary
The discussion focuses on calculating the moment of inertia of an I section about its centroidal axis, specifically addressing the placement of the ##Y_{C}## measurement, which is given as 108.4. Participants note that the d values along the X axis are considered to be zero. There is confusion regarding how ##X_{C}## can equal zero based on the provided diagram. It is suggested that the diagram implies all shapes have their centers aligned along the Y axis, despite visual discrepancies. Clarification on these points is essential for accurate calculations.

We can see d values at X axis is taken as 0.

How ##X_{C} = 0## in this diagram?

The diagram does not supply the relative x displacements of the three shapes. It looks as though you are meant to take them as all having their centres on the Y axis, despite appearances.
