Summarizing, then, it will beseen from the attached tables thatfor a speed of say 60 m. p. h. ona 3-deg. curve with a super-eleva-tion of 4j4 ins., the maximumshear on the outer spikes of theoutside rail under the most un-favorable conditions is for theelectric locomotive 5820 lbs., ascompared with 4890 lbs. for thesteam locomotive. The ultimateshearing resistance of the stan-dard spikes used on the curvein question ranges from 14,440 lbs. to 17,060 lbs. As-suming a factor of safety of 4, the permissible shear perspike is 3810 lbs. up to 4265 lbs. The loo-lb rail in use on the curve acts as a continuousgirder distributing the stresses over several spikes, but to
