The following table gives these ratios, which are the distances betweenthe stays expressed in diameters of the stay. Thus at 50 lbs. pressure in afresh water boiler, the distance between the centres of two stays is tentimes the diameter of a stay.

The diameter of the stay is equal to the distance between the staysdivided by the square root of (5000 divided by the working pressure). 17. The distance between the stays is equal to the diameter of the staymultiplied by the square root of (5000 divided by the working pressure). In the rule for flat surfaces I have assumed that the strength would varyas the square of the thickness of the plate. The experiments referred todo not enable us to test the tr
