(6) Chain Riveting and Zig-zag or Staggered Rivet-ing.—The different rows of rivets in a joint may be arrangedin chain form or zig-zag form, as shown in Figs. 47, 48. Aswe shall see later, the zig-zag form is more economical, andshould be used whenever possible. The essential feature of zig-zag riveting is that the rivetsin alternate rows are displaced laterally by half the distancebetween the rivets, i. e. by half the pitch of the rivets. In 104 THE STRENGTH OF ]\UTERIALS the form shown the joint is in a tie bar of a bridge and therivets form a triangle; it is common in boiler and like rivet-ing to make the pitch of the outermost of three rows twicethat of the innermost row
