摘要

A range of struts each consisting of ' Balsolite ' filler sandwiched between two faces of -j^-in. thick birch plywood has been tested in order to assess the efficiency of Balsolite as a stabilizer in sandwich structures.nIt is concluded that this material compares favourably with other low density materials when used as a stabilizer. Modification of the material, namely the use of transverse and longitudinal tubes alternately, does not appear to be beneficial.
