Uniform Loading over entire surface

When 0.15 ≤ n < 0.30
Stress At edge of support

When n < 0.15
Stress At edge of support

Where:

Where used:

q = Total load or force to Plate (lbs/in²)
v = Poisson’s ratio (assumed to be 0.3)
t = plate thickness, (in)
a = plate length, (in)
b = plate width, (in)
σ_a = stress, (lbs/in²)
