The legs at-tached to the heads may vary in depth }^ in. above or below thedimensions specified in Table 6. 226 When this form of bracing is to be placed on a boiler, thediameter of which is intermediate to or below the diameters givenin Table 6, the tabular values for the next higher diameter shallgovern. Rivets of the same diameter as used in the longitudinalseams of the boiler shall be used to attach the angles to the headand to connect the outstanding legs. 227 The rivets attaching angles to heads shall be spaced notover 4 in. apart. The centers of the end rivets shall be not over 3in. from the ends of the angle. The rivets through the outstandinglegs shall be spaced not over 8 in. apart; the centers of the endrivets shall be not more than 4 in. from the ends
