Abstract
The large deflection analysis of a rigid-plastic encastré beam carrying a point load obtained by Haythornthwaite is extended to cover beams carrying uniformly spaced equal point loads. It is shown how the principles revealed in the extended analysis may be used to draw the flow line for an idealized encastré three beam by three beam grid loaded at all node points. Experimental results are presented to show what significance may be attached to the analysis.Keywords
