[1] Area of section = 400×600=24×104 mm2
[2] Section modulus about XX – axis = bd26=400×60026=24×106 mm3
[3] Section modulus about YY – axis = db26=600×40026=16×106 mm3
[4] Let ex and ey be the maximum eccentricities about the XX – axis and YY – axis in order to avoid tensile stress. Let P be the longitudinal load on section.
Hence, PA=PexZxx & PA=PeyZyy
i.e. ex=ZxxA & ey=ZyyA
i.e. ex=24×10624×1004 & ey=16×10624×104
ex=100 mm and ey=66.67 mm
∴ The shaded portion of section is core or kernel of the solid rectangular section.
