1. The given Z-section is divided into simple geometric shapes 2. The centroid and second moments of area of each shape are calculated 3. Using the calculated properties, Mohr's circle is constructed to determine the principal second moments of area and orientation of the principal axes for the overall Z-section. The principal second moments of area are Imax=7.54x109 mm4 and Imin=0.96x109 mm4. The principal axes are oriented based on the construction of Mohr's circle for the given section properties.
