Problem of theoretically predicting effective shear modulus of honeycomb core materials, used in aircraft and missile industry, are examined; included in analysis are effects resulting from boundary conditions which prevent warpage of cells; it is shown that warpage constraints have little effect on shear modulus except when ratio of core cell length to its lateral dimension becomes relatively small; test procedure using rigid shear frame is suggested for measuring effective shear modulus, and some test results obtained by procedure are compared with theoretical values.
