PLAIN CONCRETE ARCH WALL DESIGN

The file name is KZARCH. Computer Program. Design plain concrete wall as an arch to support the side pressure. By given wall thickness, span, load and allowable stresses for tension and compression, the program will make ten(10) wall arch trails for each run. The thrust, shear, moment, shear stress and normal stress of inside and outside of wall will be printed out, if the arch is not overstressed. Word "overstressed" will be printed out in case the arch is overstressed. Computer will go back the position for imput of second trail or new data.
