Showing papers on "Portal frame published in 1967"
TL;DR: In this article, the minimum-weight design of a portal frame for alternative combinations of horizontal and vertical loads is discussed, and it is shown that the usual proof of the existence of a Foulkes mechanism as a necessary condition for minimum weight cannot be carried over to this problem.
