Are there any detailed formulae for the design of a c-frame with regard to stress analysis, deflection at various points on the c-frame? Prefer a non-FEA approach. I have so far used a combination of curved beam analysis and beam analysis. Actual resulting deflection figures are too far off from those calculated.
 
Possible references are "Formulas for Stress and Strain by Roark" and "Advanced Mechanics of Materials by Seely and Smith".
