Abstract
If an unsymmetrical arch is of such form that its axis may be obtained by any number of parallel projections from the axis of a symmetrical arch, and the ratio of the length of each element of the axis to the moment of inertia of a right section of the arch rib, at the middle point of such element, is the same in both arches, the statically indeterminate reactions for unit loads on the unsymmetrical structure may be obtained with comparative ease from the corresponding reactions for the symmetrical one, when the effect of the axial stress is neglected. If the effect of the axial stress is to be considered, there is no simple relation between the reactions for the two types of structure.
