Specimens taken from bars having a larger sectional' area than 41/2 square inches will be ; allowed a reduction of 500 pounds per square inch for each additional square inch of section down to a minimum of 48, 000 pounds. Specimens taken from angle and other shape iron, and from plates .not exceeding 24 inches in width, shall have an ultimate strength of 48,000 pounds per square inch, and shall elongate 15 per cent in 8 inches. Specimens taken from plates exceeding 24 inches in width shall have an ultimate strength of 46, 000 pounds per square inch, and elongate 10 per cent • .~<# in 8 inches. The iron shall bend cold around a curve whose diameter is equal to three times the thickness of the bar, at least 90 degrees for plates and shapes and 180 degrees for bar iron. steel Steel, except in rivets, shall have an ultimate strength of not less than 60,000 pounds per square inch, nor more than 68, 000 pounds per square inch, an elastic limit of not less than 35, 000 pounds per square inch, an elongation in 8 inches of not less than 22 per cent, and show a reduction in area at point of fracture of not less than 45 per cent. Rivet steel shall have an ultimate strength of 52,000 to 60,000 pounds per square inch, an elastic limit of not less than 33,000 pounds per square inch, an elongation in 8 inches of ", not less than 25 per cent, and a reduction of area at point of fracture of not less than 50 per cent, and shall be capable of bending double, flat, without sign of fracture on convex side of bend. I+'nished-bar-s_, . finish. The tensile strength, limit of elasticity, and ductility shall be determined from stand- w and test pieces which represent in all respects the quality of the finished material. Cast Iron Castings shall be of best quality of soft gray iron. A specimen bar 1 inch square and 4 feet 6 inches between supports shall bear without breaking a weight of 450 pounds sus- pended at the center. Timber All timber must be of good quality, sawed true, and out of wind. It shall be free from wind-shakes, loose or rotten knots, or other defects that will impair its strength or durability. PAINTING rainttng All surfaces in contact with each other will receive one coat of oxide-of-iron paint before ;> ,~ t.Y,, _,,_ ;assevabling, ,aid: all::o~hsr:, .urfaees_:one coat:of,linseed.oil,before shipment, with the .exception, .,. y of pins and pinholes, which will receive. one coat of white Lead and tallow.

Tests on small specimens, to determine the quality of the iron, will be ,. r ~ ^ ,: made free of charge, .but must be done at the mill before any work is done upon the iron at ' the shops. Tests on full-sized parts of the structure will be made at the expense of the party ordering them. ~~ ~~~ L .,~; r:t ~ ~~ ~~; :~x°z ~~:
