This is referenced and Bruhn and I was wondering if anyone happened to have a copy? This is an old (1950s) manual.
Thanks!

Inter-library loan has proven effective, albeit slower than molasses in an igloo. I guess I can't complain.
If anybody is still interested in this manual, let me know an I can send you a link.

A link would be great. I was never able to get a copy through Inter-library loan as they could only locate one copy and it was in a special collection that doesn't get loaned.

Let me know if it doesn't work.
It seems like there is more to this manual, but this is all the library had.

I got it with no problems. I think there is more to it, but I haven't had any luck finding it.

DANG... thought I had a copy of the Chance-Vought Aircraft [CVA] SAM for You... However my copy was actually a CONsolidated Vultee AIRcraft [CVA] Corp SAM, Circa 1944.
If anyone is interested. I also have copies of several 'other' Corp SAMs from the 1960s thru 1980s, which I've picked-up thru the years and probably shouldn't mention, but I'm trying to 'down size' my home library to worthy sites/orgs/individuals.
IF interested, ask what I have, I'll say yay or nay.
NOTE. One manual I've found useful for hand calcs...

By table of contents, this does not match the partial Chance Vought era manual above.
Aside - recent article about new Vought collection at San Diego Air & Space Museum:

Perhaps they have a copy of the full Chance Vought manual.

Is there a way to contact you through personal message? Would you happen to have the old Boeing SAM? I know there is one out there as I have seen it, but wasn't able to get it long enough to scan.
RE: Anyone have a copy of the vintage chance vought aircraft structural design manual?
Don't have a Boeing SAM... But I do have a copy of the 'Boeing Mini-Design Manual' [BMDM]... intended for use-by [and training-of] new structures engineers...
I was a new-hire at Piper Aerostar Div, Santa Maria CA Apr 1979.
An old gray-haired designer took his BMDM copy with him when Boeing laid-him-off in the early 1970s... and some-how he managed to get updated info through the lean/mean 1970s. He allowed me to copy his book [3-ring binder] so I would have professional insight into the working elements of an engineer, early in my career.... and so I wouldn't keep asking completely 'dumb-*ss questions' all the time! Learn by reading.
Hmmmm.... What a unique learning concept... and certainly waaaayyyy better than word-of-mouth and nagging everyone with basic questions that were well illustrated 'in-the-book'!!
Over the years I also accumulated other Boeing 'stuff': for instance, my data also includes a section on 'lessons-learned' [dos/don'ts for various structural components/configurations]; and another section on airframe metal component fabrication.

Do you have a digital copy of the BMDM? I would love to have a copy :)

The 'Boeing Mini-Design Manual' [BMDM] that you speak of.
RE: Anyone have a copy of the vintage chance vought aircraft structural design manual?
Oh duhhh....
Yep: 4.5" thick 3-ring binder [~7--8#, ~80% full], last updated in 1979... never run thru scanner [what a pain that would be].
Includes mini-DM + lessons-learned + extracts from older DM [most are 2-sided pages; some 1-sided pages]
