Section Modulus for Hollow Rectangular Section Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Section Modulus = (Outer Breadth of Hollow Rectangular Section*Outer Length of Hollow Rectangle^3-Inner Breadth of Hollow Rectangular Section*Inner Length of Hollow Rectangle^3)/(6*Outer Length of Hollow Rectangle)
Z = (Bouter*Louter^3-Binner*Linner^3)/(6*Louter)
This formula uses 5 Variables
Variables Used
Section Modulus - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Section Modulus is a geometric property for a given cross-section used in the design of beams or flexural members.
Outer Breadth of Hollow Rectangular Section - (Measured in Meter) - Outer Breadth of Hollow Rectangular Section is the shorter side of the outside rectangle in a hollow rectangular section.
Outer Length of Hollow Rectangle - (Measured in Meter) - The outer length of hollow rectangle is the longest side length of the hollow rectangle.
Inner Breadth of Hollow Rectangular Section - (Measured in Meter) - Inner Breadth of Hollow Rectangular Section is the shorter breadth of the rectangle.
Inner Length of Hollow Rectangle - (Measured in Meter) - Inner length of hollow rectangle is the shorter length of rectangle.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Outer Breadth of Hollow Rectangular Section: 480 Millimeter --> 0.48 Meter (Check conversion here)
Outer Length of Hollow Rectangle: 1100 Millimeter --> 1.1 Meter (Check conversion here)
Inner Breadth of Hollow Rectangular Section: 250 Millimeter --> 0.25 Meter (Check conversion here)
Inner Length of Hollow Rectangle: 600 Millimeter --> 0.6 Meter (Check conversion here)
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
Z = (Bouter*Louter^3-Binner*Linner^3)/(6*Louter) --> (0.48*1.1^3-0.25*0.6^3)/(6*1.1)
Evaluating ... ...
Z = 0.0886181818181819
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
0.0886181818181819 Cubic Meter -->88618181.8181819 Cubic Millimeter (Check conversion here)
FINAL ANSWER
88618181.8181819 8.9E+7 Cubic Millimeter <-- Section Modulus
