A stress study of the connection of bottom longitudinals and transverse bulkheads in a tanker by the use of half-size models has been made under tension. The ordinary type, the thicker type and the lapped type of brackets were tested in the elastic range and in the partially plastic range. The results suggest that the type omitting the chock nearest to the intersection is better than that with the chock fitted. The thicker bracket has nearly the same performance as the ordinary bracket and the lapped bracket produces a large stress concentration at the lapped end.
