Composite models representing porcelain-fused-to-gold restorations were constructed from photoelastic plastics. Better stress distributions resulted when the porcelain-gold joint was as far as feasible from the loading site, a bulk of gold was present on the lingual shoulder, and the porcelain-gold joint at the shoulder was 30° from the horizontal.
