Elastic Section Modulus of a Thin Wall Rectangle

 

Elastic Section Modulus of a Thin Wall Rectangle formulas

\(  S_x \;=\;  \dfrac{  2\cdot a\cdot b\cdot t }{ 3  }\) 

\(  S_y \;=\;  \dfrac{   2\cdot a\cdot b\cdot t }{ 3 }\) 

Symbol English Metric
\( S \) = elastic section modulus \(in^3 \) \(mm^3 \)
\( a, b \) = edge \(in \) \(mm \)
\( t \) = thickness \(in \) \(mm \)
