Proportion of Eye-Bar Heads and Pins
The best method of commenting upon Mr. Burr's very carefully prepared paper on stresses in the eye-bar head, is to present the results of a series of trials made with eye-bars of the usual sizes in standard structures, for the purpose of determining practically what Mr. Burr has endeavored to do mathematically. In experimenting on this subject during the years extending from 1857 to 1866, I had ascertained, as an absolute unchangeable fact, that a pin, the diameter of which was 66 percent of the width of the bar, was the least size that would invariably develop the full strength of the bar in testing to final rupture (presuming that the shearing stress has been properly provided for).
