Paper describes system of recording strength of bridges, whereby effect of any particular locomotive on various members of girders can be ascertained easily and rapidly; system consists in plotting various uniformly distributed loads which will induce maximum permissible stress in each individual member of all different types of spans on railway, and comparing resulting graph with graph of equivalent uniformly distributed load for engine it is proposed to run.
