A novel approach to satisfy the zero transverse shear stress conditions on top and bottom faces of the plate is presented. This theory includes the effect of transverse normal stress, does not require arbitrary shear correction factors for transverse shear stiffnesses and results in parabolic variation of transverse shear strains/stresses through the plate thickness. The numerical results obtained using finite element technique proves the validity of the present theory for flexure of laminated as well as sandwiched plates.
