OTHER TRACK MATERIAL 159 place between the joint and the rails and most of the load is thencarried by the bar riding on the bolts. Between the two rails the splice bars must carry the entiremoment, and unless the strength of the bar is made sufficientfor this there results an excessive deflection at this point. An insulated joint is shown in Fig. 93A. In the earlier typeswooden insulation was used, but fiber is now generally account of the low crushing strength of the insulating fiberas compared with that of steel, th
