Rectangle Elastic Section Modulus Calculator

This calculator calculates the section modulus for a rectangle. This is done with the equation below.

S=BH26S = \frac{BH^2}{6}

The following are the variables for the equations...

  1. 
    
    = the section modulus
  2. 
    
    = the breadth, i.e. the breadth of the rectangle.
  1. 
    
    = the height, i.e. the height of the rectangle.
