Figure 3 shows a symmetrical shield profile of height 90 mm from line XX, with a top width of 80 mm per side, an arc radius of 80 mm, and a rectangular notch of width 40 mm and depth 20 mm.

Determine the position of the centroid from XX, using graphical integration (using a pole distance of 50 mm), and hence determine the second moment of area.

This question uses a figure or table from the paper — you'll see it when you practise.
