What reading level is Railroad Structure And Estimates book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
196 RAIL ANCHORS.
Rail Anchors. Rail anchors or rail creepers have come into general use during the past two or three years. It is generally conceded that the anchoring of the rail to the ties supporting the joint by spiking through the slotted holes in the flanges of the angle bars places most of the anchorage on one side of the joint ties, on broken jointed track, and makes an unbalanced joint, and unless rail creepers are used the rail on the opposite side of the joint ties will not maintain... a'square position across the track.
The creeping of rails of sufficient magnitude to cause track disturbances, except in very rare cases, is the result ^of forces generated by the rolling load, according to Mr. P. M. LaBach; such as creeping due to the tractive power of the locomotive, creeping due to the friction of locked wheels, creeping due to wave motion in the track and creeping due to the discontinuity of the track structure.
The creeping due to the tractive power of the locomotive tends to move the rail in a direction contrary to that of the locomotive.
