VilliFkivF rimt'rs of Nails ami

The extensive use Io which nails and
screws are put in construction Icmis
( unsi lerable inf *rest to any records of
cxpeiience tending to discover their
holding power, lluupt, in his "Military
Bridges,” a table of tlie holding
power of wrought iron 10 d. nails, 77 to
the pound, and about three inches long.
The nudH were driven through a nine
hoard into a block, and the board was
then dragged in a direction perpendicu
lar to the length of the nails. Taking a
pine plank nailed to a pine block with
eight nails to the square foot, the aver
age breaking weight per nail was found
to be Ikso pounds. Similar experiment*
vs it 1 1 oak showed the breaking weight
to be 4b r > pounds. With twelve nails to
the loot square the holding power was
■VUi 1-2 pounds, and with six nails in
pine 4t).< 1-2 pounds. Tlie highest result
obtained was for 12 nails to the square
foot in pine, the breaking weight being
in this case 012 pounds p H r nail. The
average strength decreases with
the increase of surface. Tredgold gives
the force in pounds, reuiiired to ex
tract 8d brads from dry Christiana deal
at right angles to the grain of the wood
%* fkS pounds. The force required to draw
a w relight iron >ki nail was 187 pounds
tlie lenvtii forced into the wood being
one inch. The relative adhesion when
driven transversely <nd longitudinally
IS 111 deal about two to olle. To extract
a common (id nail from a depth of one
inch in div beech, across gram, required
Iti7 pounds, in dry Christiana deal,
ac -a grain, lt»7 pounds, and with grain
s,’ pounds. In elm the force required
was 227 pounds across grain, and 2- r >7
with gram Id oak tlie figures given was
fW7 pounds across grain. From further
experiments it wotiid appear tiiat the
holding power of spike nails in tir is
from 4t»o to 7,‘iU pounds per inch in length
while the adhesive power of screws 2
inches long, 2'2 inch in diameter at tlie
exterior ot the threads, 12 to tlie inch,
driven in one half inch hoard, was 79D
bound* in hard wood and about one
half that amount in soft wood.
