    Computing max tensile and compressive stress in a bar

    Thanks man I think i figured it out. The top is going to be experiencing tension and the bottom compression. Thank you!

    Computing max tensile and compressive stress in a bar

    haha sorry its going to bend up in the center, like an lower case n.

    Computing max tensile and compressive stress in a bar

    The beam is going to bend in the shape of a U. So it'll bend down in the center

    Computing max tensile and compressive stress in a bar

    Homework Statement I've used all the proper equations and done all the work with no problem. My only question is when computing the maximum stress, how do I know which one is the tensile and which on is the compressive? I've attached all my work and came out with Max stress = 3.84 Mpa and Max...
