Friction coefficients of brake linings . the floor, and upon these were mounteda pair of shaft hangers with babbitted bearings supporting a coldrolled shaft.

Atwenty-six inch pulley having a bore that was much too large wasfitted with a cast iron bushing and mounted securely upon the shaftbetween the bearings. To one end of this shaft was keyed a heavycast iron spider, upon which was fastened a brake sheave taken fromone of the gas engines in the laboratory. An elevation sketch ofthis lay-out is shown in Figure 1, page 4. The engine is shown atF. The drive pulley on the brake stand is shown at A with thebrake sheave at B. The hangers, D, are bolted to the timbers, F,and support the shaft upon which the pulley and sheave are brake, C, partially encircles the sheave with the outer endresting on the platform scales, G. The plan view is shown in. PLATE 2frictioncoeffici00buye
