Static analysis of the stress-strain state of a plate on elastic foundation is made in two ways on the example of a reinforced concrete road plate 2PP30.18-30 series B3.503.1-1 intended for temporary roads. These plates are considered as a planar structure on an elastic foundation. The plates are calculated by the method of B.N. Zhemochkin using the Ritz method to determine plate deflections in the main system using the mathematical package «MathCad». Also the plates are calculated on the PC «LIRA». There are given the results of experimental and numerical studies in this article

This report describes a parametric approach for the stress analysis of orthogonally stiffened rectangular plates. The analysis assumes that the deflection of an orthogonally stiffened plate is approximated by a homogeneous orthotropic plate of a uniform thickness. Polynomial expressions for maximum deflection for two sets of boundary conditions (all edges clamped and two edges clamped–two edges simply supported) are presented in terms of plate geometry and loading (normal pressure and in-plane forces). A method for computing the stress is presented that permits stresses in the actual orthogonally stiffened plate (that generally does not have a uniform plate thickness) to be determined.
