Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to clarify the problem of determining stresses and strains at any point in rigid frames whose members are subject to a non-uniform temperature differential"; that is, structural members in which the temperature on one face is different from that on the other face. Many engineers are unaware of the exceedingly high stresses created by this quite common loading condition. The paper develops a rational setup which is of general scope since it is applicable to any type of framework.
