摘要：
A procedure for plotting load paths and load flow in structures from a finite element analysis is described. The load flow is indicated by pointing vectors and the load paths are determined by plotting contours tangent to these vectors. The procedure is applied to assembled structures. An explanation is given for "eddies" that can appear in regions not contributing to the load path.
