Section Modulus Equations

This document provides equations for calculating the section modulus of different cross-sectional shapes including rectangles, I-sections, circles, tubes, diamonds, and C-channels. For each shape, it shows a diagram indicating the neutral axis and provides the corresponding equation for determining the section modulus based on the shape's geometry. The section modulus equations allow calculating the bending strength of structural members based on their cross-sectional properties.
