I realize that my question may not have been phrased very well, so here is some additional context in hope someone can help. I am performing a Finite Element Analysis on a structure using various beam shapes and material; and considering their performance. The analysis includes the effect of shear ...

Should be an easy question, but I'd like to confirm what set of formulas for different shapes (circular, rectangular, I beam...) should be used along with the material's Poisson Ratio? I have read several papers suggesting different formulas, which seem to change a little with each author. So I'd like ...

What about for the design of Utility Pole Structures? ------------------------------ Stephen Cumminger P.Eng, C.Eng, M.ASCE Principle Engineer Middle Sackville NS ------------------------------

Perhaps you could suggest the application you are interested in as the results across a broad spectrum are also broad and may not help you. For instance buildings, bridges, yolk plates, utility poles.... ------------------------------ Stephen Cumminger P.Eng, C.Eng, M.ASCE Senior Design Standards ...
