Abstract A min-max principle for elastic solids, expressed in terms of the unknown boundary displacements and tractions, is presented. It is shown that its Euler-Lagrange equations coincide with the classical boundary integral equations for displacements and for tractions. This principle constitutes a suitable starting point for a symmetric sign-definite formulation of the boundary element method.
