Greetings!
Can someone please help me figure out how to calculate the second moment of area for a hollow isosceles triangle? Is there an equation available somewhere? Or can I simply subtract a smaller triangle from a larger one, using the equation I=bh3/36? (so I= b1h13/36 -b2h23/36)
Also, is there any way to account for the base wall being thicker than the sides?
Thank you!
