Book excerpt: The engineering theory of incomplete diagonal tension in plane webs presented in NACA TN No. 1364 is generalizd in order to make it applicable to curved webs. Comparisons are given between calculated and experimental results for a number of stiffened cylinders subjected to torsional loads. The results indicate that the theory predicts the stresses to about the same accuracy for curved webs as for plane webs. The failing stresses in the stringers in curved webs were predicted conservatively in all cases.
