Abstract The load-carrying capacity of thin cylindrical glass-reinforced plastic shells loaded by axial compression and external pressure has been investigated in relation to the characteristics of the two-way reinforcing system. The critical loads are expressed in terms of the characteristics of a parallel-reinforced layer with a coefficient that takes into account the reinforcing system and the shape of the cross section. The relations among the reinforcing layers optimal for the load-carrying capacity are determined and it is shown that independent two-way reinforcing substantially improves the load-carrying capacity of solid shells and shells with a nonload-bearing core.
