Application of the beam method to structural calculation of the long cylindrical concrete shells in the work of Felix Candela

Abstract In the present work it is explained how the architect Felix Candela got to analyse the roof long cylindrical shells in reinforced concrete using an method based simply on equilibrium equations. All this, in a moment in which the elastic theory of shells becomes practically impossible to app...
