If the fitting is not properly done the joint canbe shimmed with thin metal shims. Mr. Dewell makes- the following comments: This shoe canbe used only for stresses requiring not more than two lugs, henceits field of application is limited. Another defect is that theforge work is difficult with the thickness of
