Formula For Stress
Prof. T. F. ffickerson of the
school of engineering has com
pleted a. study of continuous
structures which has resulted in
a new method of determining
stresses.
Formerly, the computation of
individual stresses on a continu
ous structure, such as a building
or a bridge, has been a tedious
and laborious task. In fact, many
engineers have been discouraged
and have disregarded this type
of structure altogether. As con
tinuous structures effect a great
saving in materials, there has
been a huge waste of money in
construction, due to the amount
of work involved in its design
ing. However, Professor Hicker
son's method of computation
eliminates all tedious work. The
simplicity and effectiveness of
his formula promises to be the
greatest contribution to engi
neering design yet developed in
this country.
