The allowable piston thrust for crosshead pins is given as 4,600 and4,800 lbs., and for crank pins 1,600 and 1,700 lbs. There are several methods of calculating the diameterof main axles which are more complicated and involvedthan the method described. In each case a lower fiberstress is used in connection with the static load on the axleand the support of adjacent side rods, in connection with The diagrams are based on the following
