Abstract
It is the purpose of this paper to present a realistic method for the design of reinforced concrete members that should result in more efficient use of the materials. The theory of elasticity has proved satisfactory for the determination of the forces acting on the various sections of continuous frames or arches and much attention has been devoted to various methods of its application. The result has been a general extension of its use and a marked improvement in the understanding, by designers, of the action of reinforced concrete structures.
