Neutral axis
Practical applications

Building trades workers should have at least a basic understanding of the concept of neutral axis, to avoid cutting openings to route wires, pipes, or ducts in locations which may dangerously compromise the strength of structural elements of a building. Building codes usually specify rules and guidelines which may be followed for routine work, but special situations and designs may need the services of a structural engineer to assure safety.
