### Diagram of a Structural L-Shaped Bracket

This image illustrates an L-Shaped structural bracket with precise dimensional annotations. The main dimensions of the bracket are as follows:

1. The total height of the vertical section of the bracket is 4 inches.
2. The horizontal base extends 3 inches.
3. The thickness of both the vertical and horizontal sections is uniformly measured at 0.5 inches.

Additionally:

- The position of the centroid \( C \) of the bracket is marked, indicating the center of mass for the two-dimensional structure.
- The horizontal distance from the left edge to the centroid is represented by \( \bar{x} \).
- The vertical distance from the bottom edge to the centroid is denoted as \( \bar{y} \).

This diagram is particularly useful in fields such as mechanical engineering and structural analysis, where an understanding of the positioning of the centroid \( C \) is essential for determining the static equilibrium and distribution of stress in the bracket.
