Not ic —When d — \D, h = lk, and F, N, and B o = $S. S and F may befound by Mechanics, as by rule given in Note appended to Prob. 2(J. In prac-tice, if h be taken equal to 3&D, the rise will generally be Of Can-Tops. Can-Tops are simply truncated cones, and the cones themselvesare pitched or bevelled circles. They may be defined in part bytheir pitch, which I shall here define to be the angle of the side ofthe cone to the base; or they may be defined by their bases andperpendicular height. The body of a common tunnel is a two-thirdspitched can-top, or a can-top having a pitch of 60° ; or, in otherwords, it is the frustum of a cone, or pitched circle, whose slantheight was equal to the diameter of the base: it is therefore madeup of a semi-circle whose radius is equal to the greater base ; butcan-tops are rarely pitched as steep as G0°. They may be con-structed in a single piece, and should be when practicable; or theymay be composed of two or more right-sections, as the body of acommon flaring vessel; so they may be pieced transversely, whendesirable, after the manner of piecing a large tunnel.
