Note on Ultimate Strength of Webs in Shear

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  28 July 2016

Extract

An investigation into the preparation of Data Sheets based on the work of Kuhn and Griffith at the N.A.C.A., revealed that it might be possible to present non-dimensional curves for the ultimate shear strength of aluminium alloy webs in incomplete diagonal tension, in a form similar to that of Structures Data Sheet 02.03.13, which are independent of material specifications. The values of “basic allowable shear stress” are founded on flat plate details from early experimental work and on estimated values for fully developed diagonal tension. Later work by Ross Levin provided further test results extending the range of diagonal tension developed, and the application of these to thick webs has been confirmed.
