Woait's mode of raising a sunk roof. S. A. 

 XXI. 374. 



Robison and others recommend that the abutment of a 

 rafter should be an arch having the other end of a rafter for 

 its centre ; but this can be of no use unless we suppose the 

 lower end of the rafter to slide upwards on the abutment 

 rrhen the other end sinks.
