Pick up the correct statement from the following :
The point through which the resultant of the shear stresses, passes is known as shear centre
In the standard rolled channels, the shear centre is on the horizontal line passing through and away from the C.G. beyond web
In equal angles, the shear centre is on the horizontal plane and away from the C.G., outside of the leg projection
In T-sections, the shear centre is at the C.G. of the section
All the above.

I think the answer will be D.

A) Shear center refers to point through which resultant shear FORCE passes, not stresses. So incorrect.

C) In equal angles, the shear center will inside the leg projection, not outside. So incorrect
D) In T section shear center is near to or at the junction of web and flange, not at C.G. So incorrect.
