  Hardy Cross and the "Moment Distribution Method" by Leonard K. Eaton in Nexus Network Journal v3n3
Cross was immediately hailed as a man who had solved one of the knottiest problems in structural analysis.
The Cross method depended on the solution of three problems for beam constants: the determination of fixed-end moments, of the stiffness at each end of a beam, and of the carry-over factor at each end for every member of the frame under consideration.
ardy Cross was a Virginian, born in 1885 in Nansemond County.

Hardy testified that a group leader, Karen McNicholas, saw her reading the pamphlet as McNicholas, who was ahead of her, turned and held open the door for Hardy to enter the plant.
Hardy did recall being told by Schaup about not calling in when she was out ill within the week commencing Monday, 19 December 1983, but claimed it was not true and she always called in or had someone call in for her if she was not going to be at work.
Hardy also failed to explain her tardiness on two occasions earlier in the week in which she was issued the warning, or her failures to record her produc- tion records even after she was told by Miller the proce- dure to follow in getting them to her for use by cost ac- counting.

 Hardy Cross - Definition, explanation
Hardy Cross, 1885-1959, born in Nansemond County, Virginia.
When architects and engineers had to compute the stresses and deflections in a statically indeterminate frame, they inevitably turned to what was generally known as the "moment distribution" or "Hardy Cross" method.
Although the Cross method has been superseded by more powerful procedures such as the finite element method, the "moment distribution method" made possible the efficient and safe design of many reinforced concrete buildings during an entire generation.

Hardy Cross was Professor of Structural Engineering in the Department of Civil Engineering at the University of Illinois from 1921 to 1937.
Cross was a consultant on many large engineering projects, and of particular note he was a member of the committee of engineers that prepared the report on the failure of the Tacoma Narrows Bridge.
Cross was a great teacher whose courses attracted the most brilliant students, many of whom chose teaching careers largely because of his example and inspiration.

 Leonard K. Eaton / Hardy Cross
"Hardy Cross: American Engineer is a refreshing and long-overdue work on an internationally revered civil engineering genius.
In this close study of a key figure in the history of technology, Leonard K. Eaton examines Hardy Cross's training, his work, his teaching, and his ideas, demonstrating how his achievements represent a pivotal moment in the history of structural engineering.
Later known as the Cross method, this achievement made possible the calculations that allowed for safe and efficient designs from reinforced concrete--a new material at the time--and the subsequent architectural revolution.

 Mete A. Sozen
The goal of this talk is to encourage engineers to review the works of Harald M. Westergaard, Hardy Cross, and Nathan M. Newmark as a whole not for the specific processes but for the general principles of their art of thinking about structural design.
Hardy Cross was the creative genius more interested in the engineering artifact than its analysis.
But when it came to the relationship of structural mechanics to design (all three had design experience and remained active and interested in structural design throughout their careers), they were completely together.
