S.F = Plastic Moment/Elastic moment.
1.5(for rect. section) = L/2/x (plastic hinge at (L/2).
1.5 = L/2x.
x = L/1.5X2.
x = L/3.
1.5(for rect. section) = L/2/x (plastic hinge at (L/2).
1.5 = L/2x.
x = L/1.5X2.
x = L/3.

Length of plastic hinge = Distance between Mp and My.
You can use a formula too = L (1-(1/shape factor)).
Shape factor for rectangular = 1.5.
Plastic length = L/3.
You can use a formula too = L (1-(1/shape factor)).
Shape factor for rectangular = 1.5.
Plastic length = L/3.

It is 1.5 = Mp/Me.
1.5 = (L/2)/X.
As plastic hinge will form at L/2.
1.5 = (L/2)/X.
As plastic hinge will form at L/2.

I have a problem in that why we consider the elastic moment as 2x?

Shape factor = 1.5.
Plastic moment/elastic moment = 1.5.
1.5 = L/(2x).
x = L/3.
Plastic moment/elastic moment = 1.5.
1.5 = L/(2x).
x = L/3.
