Analysis of force relations for simple block brakes is given with intention to make clear that equations so far available for designers are not sufficiently accurate for brakes such as are used on modern motor vehicles and railway coaches; difficulties encountered in adjusting and manufacturing brakes; formulas for study of self-energizing characteristics of brakes; new graphical method for determining arc of contact, based on analysis of pressures and formulated so that high pressures with their accompanying evils are avoided; advantages of brakes with three shoes; railway type of brakes.
