  • Abstract
    The reasons for adopting the sectional construction are given and discussed at some length. The new features of design and construction which make the sectional arrangement feasible are described. One arrangement of sections into a unit is described and alternative arrangements are discussed briefly. Performance characteristics are described in broad terms and the extent of the improvement over previous type is pointed out. A forecast of future development is indicated.
