Part of the stress is taken up on either side byrivets; but the stress that is taken up loy the outside rivetsis carried by the web from the inside of the end post. Onereason for the lack of favor in this detail is the amount ofshop work required to get it into position. avoid making a jog past the lower chord, the method shown is very effective, the few field rivets required beinga ver^ important point in its favor. It willalso be seen thatinstead of the weight being taken by a row of rivets, a bearing. Whereit is desirable to build a deep floor-beam and -13- surface is had on the cover plate of the end post.
