Extract

1. Introduction. The optimum design of plane reinforced concrete slabs frequently requires consideration of deflected shapes for the slab such that through every point there is at least one principal curvature (κ1) direction on the deflected surface which is a constant curvature direction. The most interesting cases are those where only one principal direction has this property.
