A Similarity in properties will be demonstrated between the moments and product of inertia of a lamina and the components of plane stress. It is now a well established fact that in two-dimensional stress theory it is advantageous to use certain combinationsof the stress components.

First, it will be shown that the use of similar combinations of the moments and product of inertia leads to a useful graphical means of obtaining these quantities for awkwardly placed axes and also to some results not normally to be found in the text-books. Secondly, an application to photoelastic analysis is also made.
