Comparison of Weights of a Three-Hinged and A Two-Hinged Spandrel-Braced Parabolic Arch
In June, 1896, the author had occasion to calculate the stresses, sections and weight of a three-hinged spandrel-braced parabolic arch, the outline and main dimensions of which are shown in Fig. 1. Shortly after finishing these calculations he determined to make the corresponding calculations for an arch of the same outline having two hinges, in order to determine their exact relative economy as regards weight of metal. It was not until recently, however, that the second calculation was completed. As it would seem that these results might be of some interest to members of this Society, they are here given, together with a brief exposition of the method used in calculating the stresses in the two-hinged arch.
