ires and of the magnitude of the error involved by failing to_take them into consideration when analyz- ing the stresses in an airplane of conventional type. The stresses in each member for the various conditions of loading have then been tabulated. The airplane chosen as an illustrative example… … Pig. 1. The method of least work is really nothing more than a simple method of analyzing the geom- etry of a structure. It is obvious that if a structure would deflect under load, and any parti- cular redundant tension member were absent, in such a manner as to increase the distance between the…
