SHRAPNEL A FLYING CANNON
Il Must Withstand g Pressure Of u.s.
coo Pounds to the Square
Inch.

New York-The shrapnel is really
a flying cannon which shoots It's
charge while in fight or explodes on
impact, says the American Machinist
Its design involves many interesting
features, as the case must be strong
enough TO withstand the bursting pres
sure and the stresses developed In
firing The smaller cases are no"
made from bar stock on automatic
turret machines at less than the cost
Of the forgings previously used.
The design and making of shrap-
mel case has more behind 1t than
appears on the surface for, in addition
to being a piece of steel turned and
bored to the right dimensions it must
have special mechanical properties.
II must be able to withstand a pres
sure of from thirty to thirty-five thou
sand pounds per square inch from the
powder which drives It out of the
gun, though it is tested to 4O,OOO
pounds. In addition to this 1t must
resist the charge of explosive in the
base OF the case; this base charge
drives the head and balls out Of the
case, when a time or distance fuse is
used, or explodes it on impact with
the earth or any other resisting sub
stance.
This expelling or bursting charge
exerts a pressure varying from twenty
to twenty-five thousand pounds pei
square inch. Further than this, the
tensional stress when the case is
started whirling through the rifine
of the gun by the force behind 1t must
be counted. This rotation starts the
