and Dynamics. 321. Linear Arch for a Given Upper Contour of Loading, thearch itself being the unknown lower contour. Given theupper curve or limit of load and the depth zQ at crown, re-quired the form of linear arch which will be in equili-brium under the homogenous load between itself and… … Fig. 340. Fig 341. As before, the loading is homogenous, so that theweights of any portions of it are proportional to thecorresponding areas between the curves. (Unity thick-ness 1 to paper.) Now, Fig. 341, regard two consecutivedss of the linear arch as two links or consecutive blocksbearing at…
