TABLE II. Continued. 
DEFLECTION of Red Pine Scantlings, of any breadth, when uni- 
formly loaded with one-fourth of the breaking weight. 
*»* When one-fourth of the breaking weight is suspended from the middle, multiply the 
deflections iu this table by 'S.

* Example. — A Red Pine beam 14 inches deep and 15 feet long, uniformly loaded with 
one-fourth of the breaking weight, deflects in the middle '528 of an inch; the same beam 
uniformly loaded with out-fifth of the brealiiug weight, deflects ^ x -528 = '422 of an inch. 
If one-fourth of the breaking weight be suspended from the middle, the deflection is 
•8 X -528 = '422 of an inch ; if o\^t-fifth of the breaking weight be so suspended, the deflec- 
tion is * X •538 = '338 of an inch ; and so on.
