Abstract
Formulas and charts are given for calculating deflection and stress in helical compression or tension springs of rectangular cross section taking curvature effects into account. Such curvature effects are of importance particularly in small index springs in calculating stress (where fatigue is involved) and in calculating deflections for springs coiled flatwise.
