In Figure el, which is adapted fory use as bulkhead insulation or side insulation, i. e. insulation attached to the vertical frames at the sides-of the vessel, the Hat inner face of the Wood ground F rests'against a short Wood chock T bolted to the side of the frame member V. The'wood grounds F are here secured te thechoeks T by means of coachscrew studs .V, the holes in the choclrs being made :fassboivn -of sufiicient diameter to perinit a small amount ofl lateral adjustment of `the] jroundsQ Moreover the position of the studs W in the choc-lts can be variedfor the vFigirre 5 shows a similar construction to Figure 4l, in which' a liner Z of lasbestos is arranged between a bulb iron fraine member -1 and a chock T.A This construction may be used on bullrheads separatingth-e'refrigerating' chamber from coal bunkers, in order to isolate' the Wood vork yfrom the steel structure inthe event of thelatter becoming` overheatech e; 0'.
