Abstract

We devote this chapter to four special subjects, two for membrane plates and two for plates in bending. In Section 18.1 we address the stringer-panel model for membrane calculations, and in Section 18.2 we show provisional results of membrane calculations with concrete compression stresses only. An advanced approach for orthotropic plate bending is the subject of Section 18.3. Finally, we discuss plates on soil foundations in Section 18.4.
