Beggs Deformeter Stress Analysis of Single-Barrel Conduits

摘要

This monograph presents the results of the stress analysis, by means of the Beggs Deformeter apparatus, of nine shapes of single-barrel conduits. A partial analytical check was made using the least work method to determine the redundant reactions for all shapes due to a uniform vertical load and a uniform horizontal load. The nine shapes of conduits studied are those most widely used in Bureau of Reclamation structures.
