What reading level is Modern Gasworks Practice book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The third method (Fig. 148) is comparatively rare in this country, but possesses the advantage that no retort bolts whatever are required. It is really another means of carrying out the socket principle described above, with the difference that some initial expense is saved by casting the socket and mouthpiece in one. Its disadvantage, however, lies in the fact that the security of the mouthpiece is entirely dependent upon the cross bracing employed (although the latter can be made more effec- ...tive owing to the absence of protruding bolts) and the socket portion has a tendency to crack. Once such a crack develops it is difficult to prevent a certain amount of gas leakage when the retort is under pressure. Figs. 149 and 150 show a method of fastening which has been adopted in Con- tinental gasworks. The retort is made up in two parts, the heads, and the retort proper. With the more common types of fastening it is occasionally found that a rupture occurs in the retort adjacent to the mouthpiece, particularly during the starting up of the bench.
