Upon application of load on beam, the maximum compressive strain will be observed on top surface of beam and maximum tensile strain will be observed on the bottom surface of the beam. Resultantly, compressive and tensile stresses (force) will provide resistance. Can we imagine that due to application of external load on beam, only compressive stresses are generated in beam because the application of load in beam is always from top side/ compressive zone of the member.
