Elastic Section Modulus of a Hollow Rectangle

 

Elastic Section Modulus of a Hollow Rectangle formulas

\( S_x \;=\; \dfrac{ I_x }{ C_y  }  \) 

\( S_y \;=\; \dfrac{ I_y }{ C_x  }  \) 

Symbol English Metric
\( S \) = elastic section modulus \( in^3 \) \( mm^3 \)
\( C \) = distance from centroid \( in \) \( mm \)
\( I \) = moment of inertia \( in^4 \) \( mm^4 \)
