#' STAT210prob2.36: Shear Strength of Steel Girder
#'
#' An article in the \emph{Journal of Strain Analysis} (vol. 18 no. 2, 1983)
#' compares several procedures for predicting the shear strength for steel plate
#' girders. This data shows nine girders in the form of the ratio of predicted
#' to observed load for two of these procedures, the Karlsruhe and Lehigh
#' methods.
#'
#' @format A data frame with 9 observations (rows) and 3 variables (columns).
