That concludes this 3-post series on the mass moment of inertia calculator. Hopefully these examples have shown how you can use form controls, conditional formatting, and lookup functions to make your spreadsheets function like standalone applications.

SkyCiv Moment of Inertia and Centroid Calculator helps you determine the moment of inertia, centroid, and other important geometric properties for a variety of shapes including rectangles, circles, hollow sections, triangles, I-Beams, T-Beams, angles and channels. We also have some articles below about how to calculate the moment of inertia, as well as more information on centroids and section modulus.
The moment of inertia calculator will accurately calculate a number of important section properties used in structural engineering. Here is a concise list of the section property terms and definitions:
We've also compiled more information to calculating the moment of inertia of sections. This complete guide should help provide a comprehensive knowledge base for all things related to moment of inertia, centroids, section modulus and other important geometric section properties. In the below segments, we include what is moment of inertia, how to calculate the centroid and moment of inertia and common MOI equations.
So the moment of inertia of the rectangle is 10.67 inch^4. This moment of inertia is about the centroidal axis, remember that if you need to find the moment of inertia about a different axis, you will need to use a different formula or perform a transformation. You can also check that unit is always the product of the power of input unit, in this case all input units are inches, so the result is in inches^4.
Once again, we can compare this result with that of the free moment inertia calculator to compare the results of both the centroid and moment of inertia, where both the centroid (216.29 in) and Moment of Inertia (4.74 x 10^8 in^4) match:
Simple equations can also be used to calculate the Moment of Inertia of common shapes and sections. These are quick moment of inertia equations that provide quick values and are a great way to cross reference or double check your results. Focusing on simple shapes only, the below diagram shows some of these equations:
SkyCiv also offers other tools such as I beam size tool and free structural design software. The dynamic section drawer will also show you a graphical representation of your beam section. So if you want to calculate the moment of inertia of circle, moment of inertia of a rectangle or any other shapes, feel free to use the below software or our all-inclusive SkyCiv Section Builder.
The ClearCalcs cross-section calculator allows the user to input the geometry of an arbitrary cross-section using either simple dimensions of common shapes, or fully-custom outline definitions. It then determines the elastic, warping, and/or plastic properties of that section - including areas, centroid coordinates, second moments of area / moments of inertia, section moduli, principal axes, torsion constant, and more!

The principal moments of inertia are given by the entries in the diagonalized moment of inertia matrix, and are denoted (for a solid) , , and in order of decreasing magnitude. In the principal axes frame, the moments are also sometimes denoted , , and . The principal axes of a rotating body are defined by finding values of such that
POLYGEOM computes area, centroid location, area moments of inertia and perimeter of closed polygons.This function is useful for bending/torsion stress analyses, area centroids of models for wind tunnel testing, rotational inertia for dynamics and blob analysis for image processing.
Moment of inertia is an important topic and is asked in most of the physics problems involving mass in rotational motion. Normally, MOI is used to calculate angular momentum. We shall learn about this topic more in the following paragraphs.
Moment of inertia is defined as the quantity expressed by the body resisting angular acceleration which is the sum of the product of the mass of every particle with its square of a distance from the axis of rotation. Or in more simple terms, it can be described as a quantity that decides the amount of torque needed for a specific angular acceleration in a rotational axis. Moment of Inertia is also known as the angular mass or rotational inertia. The SI unit of moment of inertia is kg m2.
The moment of inertia of a rigid body depends only on the distribution of mass of the body about the axis of rotation and is independent of the speed of rotation. Hence moment of inertia of a rigid body does not change with the speed of rotation.
This tool calculates the moment of inertia I (second moment of area) of a trapezoid. A trapezoid has at least one pair of parallel sides, called bases. Enter the shape dimensions 'b', 'a' and 'h' below. The calculated results will have the same units as your input. Please use consistent units for any input.
The moments of inertia of a trapezoid can be found, if the total area is divided into three, smaller ones, A, B, C, as shown in figure below. The final area, may be considered as the additive combination of A+B+C. Therefore, the moment of inertia Ix0 of the trapezoid, relative to axis x0, passing through the bottom base, is determined like this:
The moment of inertia relative to centroidal axis x-x, can be found by application of the Parallel Axes Theorem (see below). The position of the centroid must be determined first though, and more specifically its vertical distance from the bottom base (in other words its y0 coordinate). This in turn, can be calculated using the first moments of area, of the three sub-areas A,B,C. Since the triangular areas A and C, have bases aligned with the trapezoid bottom base, the following expression is found:
Making similar considerations, the moment of inertia, relative to axes y or y0 (perpendicular to the bases) as well as the product of inertia, can be found. However, the formulation of simple equations is not possible for these quantities.
The moment of inertia of any shape, in respect to an arbitrary, non centroidal axis, can be found if its moment of inertia in respect to a centroidal axis, parallel to the first one, is known. The so-called Parallel Axes Theorem is given by the following equation:
where I' is the moment of inertia in respect to an arbitrary axis, I the moment of inertia in respect to a centroidal axis, parallel to the first one, d the distance between the two parallel axes and A the area of the shape (=bh/2 in case of a triangle).
where Ix, Iy the moments of inertia about the initial axes and Ixy the product of inertia. Iu, Iv and Iuv are the respective quantities for the rotated axes u,v. The product of inertia for a trapezoid is generally nonzero, unless symmetry exists, in any of the relevant axes.
In principal axes, that are rotated by an angle θ relative to original centroidal ones x,y, the product of inertia becomes zero. Because of this, any symmetry axis of the shape, is also a principal axis. The moments of inertia about principal axes, I_I, I_II are called principal moments of inertia, and are the maximum and minimum ones, for any angle of rotation of the coordinate system. If Ix, Iy and Ixy are known for the arbitrary centroidal coordinate system x,y, then the principal moments of inertia and the rotation angle θ of the principal axes can be found, through the next expressions:
In Physics the term moment of inertia has a different meaning. It is related with the mass distribution of an object (or multiple objects) about an axis. This is different from the definition usually given in Engineering disciplines (also in this page) as a property of the area of a shape, commonly a cross-section, about the axis. The term second moment of area seems more accurate in this regard.
The moment of inertia (second moment or area) is used in beam theory to describe the rigidity of a beam against flexure (see beam bending theory). The bending moment M applied to a cross-section is related with its moment of inertia with the following equation:
where E is the Young's modulus, a property of the material, and κ the curvature of the beam due to the applied load. Beam curvature κ describes the extent of flexure in the beam and can be expressed in terms of beam deflection w(x) along longitudinal beam axis x, as: \kappa = \fracd^2 w(x)dx^2 . Therefore, it can be seen from the former equation, that when a certain bending moment M is applied to a beam cross-section, the developed curvature is reversely proportional to the moment of inertia I. Integrating curvatures over beam length, the deflection, at some point along x-axis, should also be reversely proportional to I. 2ff7e9595c
