The methods described in this Paper have been illustrated by numerical examples which have been kept simple in order to clarify the exposition. These methods are, however, capable of dealingwith much more complicated problems. As in the case of elastic analysis by moment distribution, the advantages of plastic moment distribution over other methods of design and analysis are more apparent the more extensive the frame under consideration. The work described in this Paper was carried out at the Engineering Laboratory, Cambridge University, under the direction of Professor J...

- GIFFORD ON THE DESIGN OF SIMPLY SUPPORTED PRESTRESSED CONCRETE BEAMS FOR ULTIMATE LOADS 125 Paper 5909 " The Design of Simply Supported Prestressed Concrete Beams for Ultimate Loads " bY Frederick William Gifford, B.Sc.(Eng.), Ph.D. (Ordered by the Council to be'published with written discussion)? SYNOPSIS The ultimate-load theory is developed for rectangular and flanged beams, taking strains into account, and assuming that the distribution of strain across a section a t failure is linear. These equations are combined with working-loadequations to enable the factor of safety to be introduced, and for the more usual case of beams failing by concrete crushing, a simple method, using the steel stress/strain curve, is given to enable either the factor of safety to be specified and the steel stresses to be obtained, or viceversa...

(Ordered by the Council to be published With written discussion.) -/- SYNOPSIS The main difficulty in the design of shell roofs is the calculation of the transverse bending moment. This moment is caused by the deflexion of the shell under loading. Deflexions of opposite magnitude to those from the applied load can be induced by prestressing, and it should therefore be possible in shell-roof design to eliminate the deflexion due to the applied load...
