Verification of the Rigid Vinyl Modeling Technique: The SL-7 Structure.

Abstract

The direct comparison of a rigid vinyl structural model with its steel counterpart under equivalent load conditions has been a prerequisite to the final verification of the rigid vinyl modeling technique. Such a program was completed and the resulting correlation described herein indicates that the structural response of a rigid vinyl model can be used to predict prototype characteristics effectively.
