    The distortion which rails undergo in manufacture and use is incomparably less than that to which rivets are subjected, and thus rail steel may safely be much richer in carbon and hence in cementite, and therefore much stronger and harder, so as to better endure the load and the abrasion of the passing wheels.

    168

    The English teacher went off the rails when Jen informed him that she didn'tt want a school teacher to take care of her child.

    169

    The export of steel (railway) rails and bridges from this part is steadily on the increase.

    170

    The fence is made of split chestnut, with the lower rail mortised into the ' godfathers ', and the upper rails nailed.

    171

    The fifth order (the third of the Dasypaedes) is formed by the Grallatores, divided into 2 " series " - (I) Altinares, consisting of 2 " cohorts," Herodii with I family, the herons, and Pelargi with 4 families, spoonbills, ibises, storks, and the umbre (Scopus), with Balaeniceps; (2) Humilinares, also consisting of 2 " cohorts," Limicolae with 2 families, sandpipers and snipes, stilts and avocets, and Cursores with 8 families, including plovers, bustards, cranes, rails, and all the other " waders."

    172

    The fishbellied rails, however, were found to break near the chairs, and from 1834 they began to be replaced with parallel rails weighing 50 lb to the yard.

    173

    The forms chiefly adopted for trees trained to walls and espalier rails are the fan-shaped, the half-fan and the horizontal, with their various modifications.

    174

    The franchise, roadway, roadbed, rails and rolling stock of railways in more than one county are assessed at their full value by the state board of equalization.

    175

    The fundamental condition governing the design of all tractive machinery is that the wheels belonging to the axles to which torque is applied shall roll along the rails without slipping, and exert a tractive force on the train.

    176

    The gateway may also include paving, grass, pillars, planters, w all s, trees, rails or fences.

    177

    The gauge is the measurement of the distance between the rails inner edges.

    178

    The gauge of a railway is the distance between the inner edges of the two rails upon which the wheels run.

    179

    The glass is taken from the furnace in large iron ladles, which are carried upon slings running on overhead rails; from the ladle the glass is thrown upon the cast-iron bed of a rolling-table, and is rolled into sheet by an iron roller, the process being similar to that employed in making plate-glass, but on a smaller scale.

    180

    The grab rails feature special soft grip moldings around the bar to reduce the risk of slipping, even with wet soapy hands.

    183

    The hand rails are bolted to the main girders.

    184

    The height from low-water level to the rails is 420 ft.

    185

    The joint was thus suspended between the two chairs, and two keys of iron, called " fishes," fitting the side channels of the rails, were driven in on each side between the chairs and the rails.

    186

    The joints of flanged rails are similar to those employed with bull-headed rails.

    187

    The keys which hold the rail in the chairs are usually of oak and are placed outside the rails; the inside position has also been employed, but has the disadvantage of detracting from the elasticity of the road since the weight of a passing train presses the rails up against a rigid mass of metal instead of against a slightly yielding block of wood.

    188

    The larger bell-bird (Anthornis melanocephala) has become quite scarce; the magnificent fruit-pigeon (Carpophaga chathamensis), and the two endemic rails (Nesolimnas dieffenbachii and Cabalus modestus), the one of which was confined to Whairikauri and the other to Mangare Island, are extinct.

    195

    The parts of the range of moulds are brought tightly together and held in position by the bars 0 and the screw P, and when one mould is filled the carrier is moved forward on its rails by wheels worked by a handle also shown in the figure.

    196

    198

    The provincial government has established ironworks for the manufacture of rails and other railway material.

    199

    The rail-failures mentioned above also drew renewed attention to the importance of the thermal treatment of the steel from the time of melting to the last passage through the rolling mill and to the necessity of the finishing temperature being sufficiently low if the product is to be fine grained, homogeneous and tough; and to permit of this requirement being met there was a tendency to increase the thickness of the metal in the web and flanges of the rails.

    200

    The rails are laid on them, and they are covered with sand, and the cars run smoothly over them.

    201

    The rails are made of hardwood or other matching cabinet material glued to a piece of wood or MDF.

    202

    The rails used are of flat bottomed or bridge section varying in weight from 15 to 25 lb to the yd.; they are laid upon cross sleepers in a temporary manner, so that they can be easily shifted along the working faces, but are carefully secured along main roads intended to carry traffic continuously for some time.

    203

    The rails were mounted on either stone blocks or timber sleepers.

    204

    The rails, which for heavy main line traffic may weigh as much as too lb per yard, or even more, are rolled in lengths of from 30 to 60 ft., and sleepers are placed under them at intervals of between 2 and 3 ft.

    205

    206

    The rattling of the rails fought against Ely's wailing vocal refrain.

    207

    The reredos, altar rails, and pulpit are of modern carved oak, and were erected by subscription in 1878.

    208

    The Roechling-Rodenhauser furnace is unfitted, by the vulnerability of its interior walls, for receiving charges of cold metal to be melted down, but it is used to good advantage for purifying molten basic Bessemer steel sufficiently to fit it for use in the form of railway rails.

    209

    The rope is carried on rollers between the rails.

    210

    The rope, which is guided upon sheaves between the rails, is taken twice round the head pulley.

    211

    The ropes are supported between the rails and guided on curves by rollers and sheaves.

    212

    The same swag can be used on a larger scale on altar rails or handrails on altar steps; use it to line a balcony, too.

    213

    The second section, to near Timbo in Futa Jallon, was completed in 1907, and the rails reached Kurussa in 1910.

    214

    The shed may have a single pair of rails for wagons running through it along one side of a raised platform, there being a roadway for carts on the other side; or if more accommodation is required there may be two tracks, one on each side of the platform, which is then approached by carts at the end.

    215

    The simplest are slip rails, often used in horse paddocks.

    216

    The simplicity is great; they can be quickly mounted and dismounted; the correct gauge can be perfectly maintained; the sections of rails and sleepers (which are of iron) are very portable, and skilled labour is not required to lay or to take them up; the making of a " turn-out " is easy, by taking out a 15 ft.

    217

    The slate extends slightly past the playing surfaces to add strength to the rails.

    218

    The specifications for bull-headed rails issued by the British Engineering Standards Committee in 1904 provided for a carbon-content ranging from 0-35 to 0-50%, with a phosphorus maximum of 0.075%.

    219

    The standard specification adopted by the Pennsylvania railway in 1908 provided that in rails weighing Ioo lb to the yard 41% of the metal should be in the head, 18-6% in the web, and 40-4% in the base, while for 85 lb rails 42.2% was to be in the head, 17-8% in the web and 40.0% in the base.

    220

    The substitution of steel for iron as the material for rails which made possible the axle loads and the speeds of Lto-day, and, by reducing the cost of maintenance, contributed enormously to the economic efficiency of railways, was one of the most important events in the history of railways, and a scarcely less important element of progressive economy has been the continued improvement of the steel rail in stiffness of section and in toughness and hardness of material.

    221

    The theoretical limit is about i in 16; between I in 20 and 1 in 16 a steam locomotive depending on the adhesion between its wheels and the rails can only haul about its own weight.

    The top rails of each trampoline frame are now fitted with a plastic insert which provides an improved interlocking fit.

    224

    The track in each rail tunnel has two continuously welded rails laid on pre-cast concrete supports embedded in the concrete track bed.

    225

    The track will be bolted into the ceiling at several points for stability, while the lights themselves can move along the track by being slid inside the rails.

    226

    The whole of the viaduct was decked with 3 inch timber planking with large timber balks running longitudinally under the rails.

    227

    There are great iron and steel works, producing every kind of heavy goods used by railway and engineering works, such as boiler plates, rails, axles, tubes, bolts and nuts.

    228

    There are two distinct ways of making the steel objects actually used in the arts, such as rails, gear wheels, guns, beams, &c., out of the molten steel made by the Bessemer, open hearth, or crucible process, or in an electric furnace.

    229

    There are two main ways of attaching the rails to the sleepers, corresponding to two main types of rails - the bull-headed rail A B FIG.

    230

    There may be two complete lines of track or three lines of rails, one being common to both tracks, and the cars passing on a middle turnout or " parting "; or a single track with a parting.

    231

    There should be no more than a three-and-a-half inch gap between the bed frame and the guardrail on bunk beds designed for children, and the space between rails shouldn't be wide enough for a child's head to fit in between.

    232

    There was a waste of metal in these early rails owing to the excessive thickness of the vertical web, and subsequent improvements have consisted in adjusting the dimensions so as to combine strength with economy of metal, as well as in the substitution of steel for wrought iron (after the introduction of the Bessemer process) and in minute attention to the composition of the steel employed.

    233

    These have become languages and platforms unto themselves, and you can build an entire site with Rails, for example, without using any HTML on your site.

    234

    These in Dortmund more particularly embrace steel railway rails, mining plant, wire ropes, machinery, safes and sewing machines.

    These rails were to be rolled in 33-ft.

    236

    These sit in rails anywhere from 2 1/2" to 3 1/2" thick attached around the perimeter of the table surface.

    237

    They also construct carriages, wagons and locomotives, and they may therefore be said to have become entirely independent in the matter of railways, for a government iron-foundry at Wakamatsu in Kishifl is able to manufacture steel rails.

    238

    They are applied on one side of the cage only, forming a complete vertical railway, carried by iron cross sleepers, with proper seats for the rails instead of wooden buntons; the cage is guided by curved shoes of a proper section to cover the heads of the rails.

    239

    They are placed either on the departure side parallel to the platform (" side " stations) or at right angles to the rails and platforms (" end " stations).

    240

    They generally have moulded rails or balusters, and rich friezes of pierced and repousse work, the whole being often thickly plated with silver.

    241

    They're basically two rectangular wooden boxes mounted on posts and outfitted with rails.

    242

    This binding mount position increases control when riding or landing while providing a more neutral balance in the air and on the rails.

    This is surrounded by an imposing balustrade with twisted balusters, similar to a set of communion rails.

    250

    This line was originally designed as a " plateway " on the Outram system, but objections were raised to rails with upstanding ledges or flanges FIG.

    251

    This one comes with shorter rails near the head of the bed.

    252

    This rail was more easily rolled than others, and, being reversible, was in fact two rails in one.

    253

    This track has guides or rails built into it together with a toothed rack has guides or rails built into it together with a toothed rack or track.

    254

    This track has guides or rails built into it together with a toothed rack or track.

    255

    This very loosely structured film eventually goes off the rails and the closing scenes feel almost like an afterthought.

    256

    This will entail unscrewing the assembly and may require a hacksaw to get the rails off.

    257

    Three low walls made of lumber, brick, cedar rails or even plastic.

    258

    Three steps up to altar with altar rails on second step.

    259

    Thus it is used of the purchase used in raising the flukes of an anchor to the bill-board; of a piece of wood or metal used to strengthen a sprung mast or yard; and of a plate of metal used, as in railway construction, for the strengthening of the meeting-place of two rails.

    260

    Thus it may fairly be said that the railway system of the United States was reconstructed between 1896 and 1905, so far as concerns rails, sleepers, ballast and the general capacity of a given group of lines to perform work.

    261

    Thus the typical carbon-content may be taken as about o 05% for rivets and tubes, 0.20% for boiler plates, and 0.50 to 0.75% for rails, implying the presence of o 75% of cementite in the first two, 3% in the third and 7.5% to 11.25% in the last.

    262

    Thus, if the use of ores very much poorer than those we now treat, and the need of concentrating them mechanically, were to double the cost of a pound of iron in the concentrated ore ready for smelting, that would increase the cost of rails by only one quarter.

    263

    To enable trains to be transferred from one pair of rails to another pair, as from the main line to a siding, " points " or " switches " are provided.

    264

    Top of page angled rails Angled rails are useful anywhere you want to change height (from standing to sitting, for example ).

    265

    Toward its northern, southern and western extremities the Zetland country is mainly grass with stone walls, rails and hedges.

    266

    Traditional tot beds are designed to use a crib mattress, are built low to the ground, and come with either built-in or removable side rails.

    267

    Troostite and Sorbite, indeed, seem to be chiefly very finely divided mixtures of ferrite and cementite, and it is probably because of this fineness that sorbitic steel has its remarkable combination of strength and elasticity with ductility which fits it for resisting severe vibratory and other dynamic stresses, such as those to which rails and shafting are exposed.

    268

    Tuscan villas often have wrought iron rails and even furniture.

    269

    Two lines may be drawn from this point, one to each of the two rails, in a plane normal to the rails, and the ends of these lines, where they meet the rails, may be joined to complete a triangle, which may conveniently be regarded as a rigid frame resting on the rails.

    270

    Vertical - With a vertical rail design, the balusters run up and down between the rails, similar to a banister on a balcony or set of stairs.

    271

    Wheel chairs, portable ramps and guard rails may take up more space than you assumed, creating a cramped home.

    272

    When these operations were begun a project for linking Suakin to Berber by railway, first proposed during Ismail's viceroyalty, was revived and a few miles of rails were laid in 1884.

    273

    When we are walking past a fence formed by equally-spaced vertical rails or overlapping boards, we may often note that each footstep is followed by a musical ring.

    274

    Where, as at a double-line junction, one pair of rails crosses another pair, " diamond " crossings (p) are formed.

    275

    While large ships are often replete with garish colors and frenetic themes, Celebrity cruise ships are smoothly coordinated with nautical accents of etched glass, brass rails, warm wood tones, and rich fabrics.

    276

    With different types of fixtures to go with this type of light, including pendants and directional spot lighting, curved or straight rails, track lighting can even be used to illuminate architectural details and artwork.

    277

    With the wingtip missile rails removed and the trailing edge reshaped they are almost a perfect match.

    278

    Wooden rails, protected by iron straps, are sometimes used on underground roads for temporary traffic; but steel rails, similar to, though lighter than, those employed for railways are the rule.

    279

    Wooden sleepers continued to be used, the rails being secured by spikes passing through the extremities, but about 1793 stone blocks also began to be employed--an innovation associated with the name of Benjamin Outram, who, however, apparently was not actually the first to make it.

    280

    Wrought iron railings, hand rails and banisters are the perfect way to display the fleur de lis.

    281

    You just sit in the seat and push the sled up and down the rails.

    282

    You simply remove the changing pad and rails from the top of the dresser, add a mirror if you like, and there you have it!
