Stress distribution in pure bending: By Hooke s law, the axial stress is given in terms of the axial strain by the relation. Therefore, the axial stress is zero on the neutral surface and increases linearly as one moves away from the neutral axis.Axial load and the location of the neutral axis: There is zero axial load in a member under pure bending. Therefore, the axial load generated by the stress should be zero.his yields. Since the axial load is zero during pure bending, one concludes that for pure bending. The reader recalls that the location of the centroid of an area is calculated from the relation. Therefore, for the axial load to be zero, the neutral axis must pass through the centroid of the cross section (i.e., yc=0).

John Adams by John Trumbull, c. 1792-93. Born on October 30, 1735, Adams was the first Vice President of the United States and the second President of the United States. His son, John Quincy Adams , was the sixth President of the United States. Adams was born in the town of Quincy, Massachusetts, to John Henry Adams and Susanna Boylston Adams. He graduated from Harvard College in 1755, taught at Worcester and studied law with Rufus Putnam, to be admitted to the bar in 1758.
