When is the Y-Axis section modulus used to calculate the bending stress in an I-beam? If the beam is conventionally loaded (simply supported , and load is imparted in the vertical direction on top of the flange), does bending occur about the "Y" or "X" direction? Subsequently, do you use the...
Thanks for the replies. Very helpful.

x9: are suggesting that I can get away with a smaller generator for this size motor? If so, given the motor specs, what's the smallest generator I can rent for this application?
waross: you suggest the at the generator should be sized for...
