                                 lntroduction
             The purpose of this report is to provide a program
to calculate the deflection and stresses for a floating ice
sheet on the Hewlett-Packard model 67 pocket calculator.
CRREL does not necessarily endorse the HP-67 since there are
other programmable pocket calculators that may also perform
the same computation.
