To allow thesteel to be made circular in shape, the pipeswere made with the vertical diameter 4 than the horizontal. The rings were all circular in section, 4ft. inside diameter and 2 ft. long, the rein-forcement being placed as shown in Fig. reinforced rings, of which there weresixteen, were 4 ins. thick, while the eightplain concrete rings were made 6 In most of the rings the steel wasshaped somewhat like an ellipse in order tobring the reinforcement near the tensionside at the quarter points. In Nos. 934,971, and 972 the bars were flatten
