Fig. 4. In Table C are given the values of H„ M,, etc., for the variousloadings considered. Since the first four sets are symmetrical, onlyont>-half of each equilibrium polygon is drawn, as shown In Fig. the Inst two sets the loading Is not symmetrical and hence thepolygons must bo constructed for the entire span. Proceed as fol-lows: Lay off y, and y, at the left support and y^ at the crownand construit both halves of the polygon on the left of the crownas shown in Fig. 3. All of Iho above results arc obtained with comparatively littlelabor and in a short time. As usually considered the arch rib, asshown In Fig. 1. would be passed as quite safe for the given load-ings.
