The Structural Engineer, Volume 58, Issue 14, 1980
Professor M. R. Home (Vice-President) (Simon Engineering Laboratories, University of Manchester): The author’s presentation is of interest, but fails to mention a number of factors that could be of considerable importance for some frames. Some of these factors significantly affect the validity of the analytical procedure proposed.
Numerical analyses of the strength of stiffened plates in compression have been carried out, covering a range of plate and stiffener slendernesses. Different ratios of flange/web and stiffener/plate cross-sectional area ratios are studied. C.A. Carlsen
