Consider the following statements about a closed section under transverse shear:

1. It is statically indeterminate.

2. A cut is made to render it determinate, then a redundant flow restored.

3. The final answer depends on where the cut was made.

Which of the statements given above is or are correct?

  • A.1 and 3 only
  • B.2 and 3 only
  • C.1, 2 and 3
  • D.1 and 2 only

Answer: D

The first two describe the standard method. The third is false: the redundant flow compensates exactly for the cut, so the final distribution is independent of its position. The cut is chosen only for arithmetic convenience.
