Abstract:
Classified under 21 section titles the 159 references from 186 authors included in this bibliography have been selected as representative of the material available in each category within the broad field of model testing. Both early and current references have been included to show how the art of model testing has advanced, and both detailed and cursory studies have been included to show how the art varies today. This bibliography is selective rather than all-inclusive.

A previous study of the buckling of a cylindrical shell roof is noted wherein plastic models did not reproduce well the buckling behavior of reinfroced mortar shells. In this paper the results of tests on four spherical domes, two made of plastic and two of reinforced mortar, are presented.

Scale models are becoming increasingly more important in research on structural concrete and are also being used quite widely in the design problem. Presenting a justification for the use of models in these areas the authors discuss the advantages and disadvantages of structural models in general.

One of the functions of the Canada Emergency Measures Organization is to reduce the vulunerability of normal buildings to a variety of dynamic loads, including blast and earthquake. The first part of this paper describes the production of eight small structures each with seven floors and 15 columns per floor. . .The paper also includes a discussion of the techniques used in mounting the model on a fixed base and on attaching loading devices.
