To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


Pitch = 4 inches.

mine the pitch of the angle rivets if the diameter of rivet is J inch.
Thickness of web = J inch.
Assume same working stresses as
...in last example.
Eivets in double shear.
Shear strength of one rivet = 2x0-6x6 = 7-2 tons.
Bearing strength of rivet on web plate = | x J x 12 = 5-25 tons.
Least B = 5-25 tons.
Shearing force at ends, F = 2 x 30 = 60 tons.
From (3) ^ 5-25x24 ^ 2-1 inches.
^ 60 This pitch is too small for a single line of rivets.
Therefore we must use angles 4Y x 4^" x Y with two rows of rivets placed zig-zag (Fig. 115).
Now, as there are two rivets in each pitch, m ^ 2x5-25x24 ^ ^.^ .^^j^^^ ^ F 60 Pitch = 4 inches.
