To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
— ^The thickness of the bearing-plate when made of steel, with an allowable shear value of 12,000 lbs. per square inch to sustain safely the imposed load of 325,257 lbs. ^2C 2*? 7" applied by a column section of 26.3 square-inch area, — . ■= =1 square mch. 12,000 ^ The other dimensions of the bearing-plate must be such as. to provide sufficient area to properly distribute the load over the masonry foundation. A stone sill or cap is generally provided, surmounting the pier and directly supportin...g the bearing-plate. The unit load which it is considered good practice to allow upon a monolithic capstone is taken at from 15 to 30 tons per square foot of bear- ing, depending upon the character of the stone used. Assuming 20 tons per square foot as a reasonable average, — ^==8 square feet, or ^1152 = 34X34 inch plate required. Stability of Structure and Anchorage.— Investigating the stability of the structure upon the principle previously explained, with the direction of the wind normal to the side of the square formed by the tower frame, the tendency would be to overturn about the base of the two leeward columns, and this must be DESIGNING, 219 resisted by anchorage where the resisting moment is less than the overturning moment.
