Problem 4.—If seam Xo. 14 has an efficiency of percent what will be the efficiency of seam No. 2, providing thatthe thickness of plate, tensile strength of plate and shearingstress of rivets are alike for both seams? From the point where the per cent line from the ver-tical scale intersects the line of seam No. 14, project a linevertically to the line of seam No. 2 and from this point pro-ject a line horizontally and find the efficiency, which is cent. Fig. 3 shows the stress on several sizes of stay bolts, underconditions varjing from supporting 13 sq. in. to 22 sq. in.
