Abstract There are several factors which affect the cost and efficiency
of a structure. The most important and basic factors are: the predominant
stress, the way the structure carries the loads and the
shape of the structure.
The structures in which the predominant stress is not bending
have been chosen to be treated and discussed in this thesis. These
structures will be called "Structures Without Bending." These structures have been classified by grouping them into
two main groups: one-way structures and two-way structures. Each
group is divided into subgroups depending on the shape factor.
Some of the advantages and limitations of bending-free structures
have been presented herein. The reader will also find many
demonstrative examples and sketches.
