This shop has runways for three cranes and an en-trance track for bringing heavy materials through the centerbay. The characteristics of the crane in the center bay of theforge shop are as follows: Capacity, 10 tons; span, 48 ft. 4in.; distance from crane rail to floor, 20 ft.; speed of bridge,350 ft. to 400 ft. per minute; speed of .trolley, 100 ft. to 150 hz \ I1 |~8-1 l-f-9-l-l> Plan.
