Not illustrated. 1894 Excerpt: ... with reference to the joint in the lower plate on the left and the bottom cover. If the group of plates consists of equal thicknesses, there will be a slight excess in strength if each cover is made equal in thickness to one of the plates; if the plates vary in thickness it will depend upon their position, in so far as they affect the length of the lever arms of the covers, about the joint. If each of the five plates shown in the figure is 4 inch in thickness, the thickness of each cover should be made inch; the excess in area may be neglected. With reference to the group of joints shown in the sketch--1. Failure may occur by the shearing of all the rivets in the joints between 1 and 7. 2. Failure may occur by the shearing of the rivets between 2 and 6, and the tearing of both cover-plates at the same time. 3. Failure may occur by the rivets between 1 and 7 cutting into the plates from insufficiency of, or excessive pressure on, the bearing area. 4. Failure may occur by the rivets cutting into the covers between 1 and 2 and 6 and 7 at the same time that the rivets cut into the plates between 2 and 6 and 2 and 9, or between 2 and 6 and 2 and 10. With regard to the first mode of failure. Let N = the total number of rivets in the joint. p = the number of plates. b = the breadth of each plate less rivet-holes. t = the thickness of each plate. m = the number of rivets in each end group. / = the number of rivets in each central group. d = the diameter of the rivets. a = the area of one rivet. Then N =-pbt for iron = 2m + (p-l)r (1) 0'8 N = pbt for steel = 2m 4-(j)--l)r (2) a With regard to the second mode of failure. If the thickness of each cover be made equal to t, then--Cover-plate area = 2bt Number of rivets in the central groups = (p--l)r Rivet area ...
