... are determined by tests. The shape of the compression-stress distribution and the position of its centre of gravity are denoted by symbols for which safe limiting values are obtained experimentally. A plastic theory for the ultimate longitudinal bending strength of cylindrical shells is also presented...

... to street-traffic only. The presence of sewers and mains parallel to the railway for the whole length of the works made this longitudinal working necessary, and as the mainroad carried one-way traffic only, long lengths of hoarding could be erected and the works expedited. It was originally intended...

... that one point which should be noted in connexion with the approach-spans was that, with the adopted type of span, the longitudinal forces due to tractive effort or braking effect on two spans had to be carried by onepier,whereas with separate simple spans it was possible alternately to fix and free...

..., there is a departure from pure rolling, and a discrepancy between the actual distance travelled and that to be expected from the revolutions of the wheel. Using Carter s definition, this discrepancy willbe called the creep, and thferaction (creepdistance travelled) willbe termed the longitudinal creepage...
