@Navaj.

If so, why there is compressive stress at the bottom in case of cantilever beam?

Avinash said:   7 years ago
Transversely means axially loading.

Sregae said:   6 years ago
Top layer is right.

Palash said:   6 years ago
Yes, it's suitable for a cantilever beam.

Yesh said:   6 years ago
Agreed @Navaj Mulla.

Aman Gupta said:   6 years ago
This is only true if the beam is simply supported for cantilever beam with TSL the answer will be opposite.

Naidu said:   6 years ago
Tensile force and tensile stressed are different and opposite to each other.

Rajendra Sharma said:   6 years ago
During sagging compression will take place at the top layer correct answer is A.

Ankush said:   6 years ago
It totally depends on the type of loading.

Asif Iqbal said:   6 years ago
Top layer is the Correct answer.
