Definitions
- My invention is for a beam or girder made of wood, and banded with iron or other material for the purpose of strengthening it, and thus make all such work stronger and lighter.
- A is the beam or girder, of wood, thirty feet in length, three inches thick, and twelve inches wide. It may be longer or shorter, thicker or It is intended for thinner, wider or narrower.
- B the band which strengthens it
- O the spikes or bolts with which it is secured to the beam.
- D D are straps which pass round a beam or girder.
- E E are screws for tightening up 'the bands;
- F F nuts on the ends of the screws.
- G are A teeth in the bands at the ends of the beam or girder, where the ends rest, to prevent them from slipping and to hold 'them tirmly in position.
- This invention is for bridges and for buildings, and for every kind of beam or girder and stringers of wood, wherever used. It will be very strong, and take the place of truss-work in a great many places, and allow of using wood much lighter than that used in the ordinary way.

i Naftfm'c and Object of thcln'vcnt'ion.
My invention is for a beam or girder made of wood, and banded with iron or other material for the purpose of strengthening it, and thus make all such work stronger and lighter.
Description 0f thc Drawing forming part of this Specification.
General Description.
A is the beam or girder, of wood, thirty feet in length, three inches thick, and twelve inches wide. It may be longer or shorter, thicker or It is intended for thinner, wider or narrower.
tiis beam'to sit up edgewise. B, the band which strengthens it; O, the spikes or bolts with which it is secured to the beam. D D are straps which pass round a beam or girder. E E are screws for tightening up 'the bands; F F, nuts on the ends of the screws. G are A teeth in the bands at the ends of the beam or girder, where the ends rest, to prevent them from slipping and to hold 'them tirmly in position.
This invention is for bridges and for buildings, and for every kind of beam or girder and stringers of wood, wherever used. It will be very strong, and take the place of truss-work in a great many places, and allow of using wood much lighter than that used in the ordinary way.
I claim as my invention- A beam or girder with a band or plate of iron on its under side and running its whole length, and lapping upward over its ends, and secured, as described, so as to give it strength, substantially as set forth.
