A greaterworlcing stress for bi-axially loaded concrete should not bepermitted. A statement that, in a bi-axially loaded structure, one loadstrengthens the material agair-st forces in a perpendiculardirection is not true. The deformation is reduced it is true,but these tests show that the strer^th is not increased. In amaterial whose tensile and compressive strengths -ere morenearly equal than in concrete, the strer^gth might be increasedby bi-axial loading, but it may be concluded from these teststhat not the c
