5.1.1 The position of a neutral axis from the bottom. Step 1: Determine the total height of the cross-section. The total height H is the sum of the vertical dimensions: H = 100 mm + 300 mm + 200 mm + 300 mm + 100 mm = 1000 mm Step 2: Calculate the position of the neutral axis from the bottom. The cross-section is symmetrical about the horizontal axis (x-x axis). Therefore, the neutral axis (centroidal x-axis) is located at half the total
