Cross Sections Showing the Details of the Doors for the Norfolk &. Western100-Ton Coal Car With Their Attachments to the Car At each corner is a push-pole pocket which also includesa jacking pad beneath the corner construction. The designof the corner has been so worked out that, either in poling orjacking, the end metal of the structural sections come intobearing, and the load is transmitted to them without depend-ing upon the rivets. Special provision has been made at thetop of the 4-in. by 4-in. by S/16-in. corner angles to takecare of the loads at this point when the car is stooled underthe corner jacking pads. The bolsters consist of plate girders which are located abovethe center sill and beneath the hopper chute. These are con-structed of >4-in. web plates with top and bottom flange an-gles on both sides of the plate, and cover plates. The angles onthe inside of the web plate and the cover plates are stoppedoff where the reduction in stress permits. For a side stake at b
