On both sides of the point of application of the load. The German engineers believed that this zone of influence of loads was of tolerably large extent, for they have fixed the length of cross ties at 8 ft. 10. 3 in. And recommended the employment of pieces as long as possible. It is the conclusion at which Mr. Ast, notably, has arrived in the fifth section of the International Congress of Railways, in a memorandum on track: "A better means for distributing the given load on the greatest possib...le number of cross ties, and, consequently, on the greatest possible surface of ballast, consists in the reduction of the spacing of the cross ties and in increasing their surface of support. These two measures have, however, their limits; the first because it is necessary to preserve the possibility of tamping, the second because, on the one hand, the width of ties cannot be too great, if one wishes to be able to tamp well underneath, and because, on the other hand, the length which can be conveniently given to them depends on the gage.
