rve ABC, i.e., the linear arch itself, re-quired the form of the curve MON, or upper limit of load-ing, such that the linear arch ABC shall be in equilibriumunder the loads lying between the two curves. The load-ing is supposed homogeneous and of constant depth ~\ topaper; so that the ordinates z… … Fig. 332. Fig. 333. LINEAR ARCHES. 389 Practical Solution.—Since a linear arch under verticalpressures is nothing more than the inversion of the curveassumed by a cord loaded in the same way, this problemmight be solved mechanically by experimenting with alight cord, Fig. 333, to which are hung…
