Analysis of a Rigid-Jointed Framework
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 28 July 2016
Extract
In the design of structural frames it is often the practice to assume the joints to be pinned, or hinged, and to calculate the forces in the members on this assumption; actually, the joints are made with considerable rigidity. The following are the results of an analytical and experimental investigation into the stresses in a rigid-jointed space frame and of the magnitude of the errors due to the assumption oi pinned joints.
