It's true only as long as the stresses are within elastic limit. Refer to "Design of concrete structures by Nilson".

The correct answer should be B.

In most of the cases, it passes through the centroid. But it's not true. I think D should be correct.
Deep shah said:   8 years ago
I think it's wrong. Because centroid and neutral axis have no any relations.
