Missing Thread "Wind Stress on a Simply Supported Structure

  • Thread starter erobz
  • Start date
In summary, the thread titled "Wind stress on a simply supported structure" in the Engineering HW section "Houdinied" and was later deleted due to the OP realizing they had posted proprietary information. Although the thread had good replies, it was ultimately deleted. There were discussions about points being awarded for the thread, but it was ultimately decided to just forget about it.

I remember seeing the title. Was it in ME or in the schoolwork Engineering forum?

I see that it was deleted, but I know know why yet. I've sent a PM to the person who deleted it, so I'll update you as soon as I hear back.

Okay, it turns out it was for work, not for schoolwork, and the OP realized that they had posted proprietary information in the thread. We normally don't delete threads with good replies, and the OP now understands that. You and @Lnewqban spent a lot of time giving great help to that poster; sorry about the deletion.

Ok. I was just going to say: If I'm getting more points for something, just forget I asked...:nb)
