Plywood roof beams are described which are reinforced top and bottom with steel bars; these bars are curved so that they meet at beam supports where they are welded together; in this manner bond and shearing stresses in timber are reduced; method of analysis is presented by which stresses in these beams can be calculated; theoretical values are compared with experimental results which were obtained from tests on scale models of these beams.
