A new approach to designing shell structures against buckling, without the extensive and complicated mathematical detail usually associated with this intricate engineering problem. Presents the results of shell buckling theory through diagrams, tables, and simple formulae--directly useful in practical design. Cites problems of the application of theoretically derived critical loads to shells made of steel, concrete, and other materials, and discusses safety factor choices.
