Übersicht

Es wird ein Verfahren zur systematischen Untersuchung von elastisch gelagerten Balken-Säulen oder Verbindungs-Stäben angegeben, wobei die Berücksichtigung komplizierter Querlasten durch einen besonderen Rechenformalismus erleichtert wird. Verschiedenartige Beziehungen zwischen der Längslast und der Bettungsziffer werden untersucht; drei Spezialfälle sind diskutiert, wobei die Enden fest-fest, gelenkiggelenkig bzw. frei-frei gelagert sind.

Summary

A method is presented for the systematic analysis of elastically supported beam-columns or tie-bars in which formal notational devices simplify the handling of complicated discontinuous lateral loads. Various relationships between axial load and support modulus are treated and three particular cases (fixed-fixed, pinned-pinned, and free-free ends) are exhibited.
