Abstract |
A proportioning method for member sections of a single layer latticed dome subjected to uniformly and/or non-uniformly distributed load is discussed. This method is based on linear buckling stress obtained from linear buckling analysis. The method has been confirmed so efficient to size the members which the dome designed by the method may satisfy the required ultimate load under uniform load. The present paper investigates a proportioning method simultaneously considering dead and snow load distributing non-uniformly. |
