I think option B is correct.

Well said @Rakshit.

Neutral axis is the axis where shear stresses are maximum in most of the cases because whole mass or area of the body is concentrated at centre of gravity or centeroid. And neutral axis passes through the centeroid bending stresses are zero at the neutral axis.

But neutral axis is that axis where stresses are zero.

Option C is the correct answer.

Harshit said:   7 years ago
Shear stress is zero at neutral axis.

Deepak said:   7 years ago
I agree with option C i.e., maximum shear stress occurs at neutral axis in most of the section as illustrated.

Ref: R.K. Bansal.

B is the right answer. I agree.

Ravindra said:   8 years ago
C is the right answer. I agree.

Neutral axis is the right answer.

Difference of shear stress margin between option c and d is very small.
