Design information is presented on the buckling strength of longitudinally stiffened curved plates. Design charts for determining the buckling strength of flat plates stiffened longitudinally by Z-section stringers are given for plate and stiffener proportions representative of stiffened curved plates and a semiempirical procedure is suggested from which the effect of curvature on the buckling strength of the plate can be determined.
