None of usual forms of concrete ties seems to have allowed for special dynamic application of forces that occur in this kind of structural member; set of curves shown illustrates shock action on deflection of test beam; latest forms of concrete ties endeavor to embody principles of correct weight distribution and shock absorption, and do away with weak center portion; Stent tie embodying some of these principles now being experimented with by London and North Eastern Ry.
