Burr, William H. (William Hubert), 1861-1934 · New York : Wiley · leaf 286
ment of arched ribs itwill be necessary, first to consider some general principles re-garding equilibrium polygons for any given system of verticalforces, and then those involved in the theory of flexure. In the figure below, let AB K h& any straight, simple beam, subjected to the action of the… … Fig. I. then will 2Px represent the bending moment to which thebeam is subjected at the section denoted by x. Now let therebe imagined any force /^acting parallel to AEK, and let themoments 2Px be taken at each of the points B, C, D, E, F,G, H. Then if the quotients of those moments divided bythe…
