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. |
