Hello rb1957:
Thanks for your reply. yes, this is assuming that the screws load the beam in torque and the bar is solid not tube. What I mean to ask is the way to calculate the stress value so that I would know where my operating point is in the stress strain curve.
Thank you.

Thanks for the reply. The known torque is applied on the center set of 4 screws equally placed throgh out the length of bar, which is causing some deflection. Another set of 2 screws are already fixed at the both ends of the bar. I would like to know how to calculate the stress value so...
Can anyone tell me how to calculate the shear stress value for a rectangular beam. All I have is the value of torque in lb-in, I apply on the screws. The bar is 12 inch long and 1 in bredth and 1/2 inch height. there are screws which hold this bar on a panel and the bar is restrained to move at...
