Pick up the correct statement from the following:
In a loaded beam, the moment at which the first yield occurs is called yield moment
In a loaded beam, the moment at which the entire section of the beam becomes fully plastic, is called plastic moment
In a fully plastic stage of the beam, the neutral axis divides the section in two sections of equal area
The ratio of plastic moment to the yield moment, is called shape factor
All the above.
