Shear stresses in beams refer to the internal forces that act parallel to the cross-sectional area of a beam. These stresses arise due to the shear force applied to the beam. Shear stresses distribute themselves across the beam's cross-section, causing deformation. They are responsible for resisting the shear forces and maintaining equilibrium in the beam. The magnitude of shear stress varies along the beam's height, with the maximum occurring at the neutral axis and decreasing towards the top and bottom. Understanding shear stresses is crucial for analyzing beam behavior and designing structures that can withstand the applied loads.

There are two primary types of stresses: Normal Stress and Shear Stress Normal stress, σ, is calculated when the force is normal to the surface area; whereas the shear stress, 𝜏 , is calculated when the force is parallel to the surface area.
When a force acts perpendicular (or "normal/axial/direct") to the surface of an object, it exerts a normal stress. It is denoted by It can be either compressive or tensile in direction.
Shear stresses, 𝜏 , are commonly found in bolts, rivets, and pins
If the direction of the force is parallel to the plane of the object. The deformation will be along that plane. The stress experienced by the object here is shear stress or tangential stress. Unit is same as normal stress.
Permissible stress or Allowable stress or Working stress is always less than the Ultimate stress using a factor called factor of safety.
Stress at a point is resolved in Normal and Shear Component. Normal Stress can be read as : x is normal stress acting on plane perpendicular the X direction. Shearing Stress can be read as : 𝜏yz is shear stress in the plane perpendicular to Y axis in the z direction.
