Compression Tension.
Tension and.
compression
both​

Answer 1

Answer:

Where does tension and compression act in bending of simply supported as well as in cantilever beams?

S. S. B:

Compression at load acting side ie, if load us acting downward, compression acts at top and if load acts upward, compression acts at bottom face.

Tension acts from opposite to loading side ie, if load acts downward, tension acts at bottom face.

In a cantilever beam, the case is just opposite bcz when the load acts downward, top face gets stretched ie tension acts at top face n vice_versa.

Moreover, we always reinforce a beam for increasing its tensile strength thatz why,

Ssb is reinforced at bottom and cantilever at top.

Hope it ll help u a bit.

Thank u
