Abstract
Abstract A method of predicting creep in bending from data on creep in tension has been derived and applied to creep of a canvas laminate. Both creep deflections and stress distribution were derived. The deflections compared favorably with test data. It was shown that the stress distribution remained constant during creep in bending when creep in tension and compression were equal and the coefficient of the time-dependent term was equal to the time-independent term. Methods of determining creep deflections of beams having nonuniform bending moments are described.
