The Structural Engineer, Volume 33, Issue 5, 1955
RECENT research1 has shown that flexibility is desirable for sheet pile wall sections. The flexural properties of steel, reinforced roncretct, and prestressed concrete sections arc studied, in order to determine the most flexiblc section for a given moment of resistance. General relationships between unit moment of resistance and the flexibility number of the piling are developed for the conditions of working stress, yield, and ultimate failure. P.W. Rowe
THE PHESIDENT, introducing Mr. Dick, said that he was the Superintending Structural Engineer who had been responsible for the design and the conduct of the very remarkable work of which he was going to speak. He was known well to many who were present that evening, so that he needed little introduction; in any case he was well able to speak for himself, and his work would speak for him too.
MR. W. E. BLIZARD, B.Sc., M.I.C.E., M.I.W.E. President of the British Section of the Societe, was in the chair and Dr. S. B. Hamilton, M.Sc., B.Sc.(Eng.), M.I.C.E., President of the Institution, accompanied him on the platform.
