Tremendous headers took we in the waters bright and clear, And splashed and dashed, and dived and swam, just off old Blankton Weir.
The back headers are each connected at their upper ends by means of two long horizontal tubes with the steam-chest, the bottom ends of the headers being closed.
The headers are furnished with holes on two opposite sides; those on one side form the means of connexion between the headers and tubes, and the others allow access for fixing the tubes in position and cleaning.
The superheaters, which are frequently fitted, consist of two cross-boxes or headers placed transversely under the cylindrical drum and connected by numerous C-shaped tubes.
The headers are usually of malleable cast iron with diaphragms cast in them, but sometimes steel has been employed, the bottoms being closed by a riveted steel plate, and the diaphragms being made of the same material.
The tube-holes are accurately bored, at an angle to suit the inclination of the tubes, through both the front and back of the headers and through the diaphragm, those in the header walls being slightly conical.
Access for securing the tubes in the headersis provided by a hole formed on the other side of the header opposite each of the tubes, where they are grouped in fours, and by one larger hole opposite each group of two tubes.
The headers are bolted to socket-pieces which are riveted to the bottom of the steam-chest, so that any element may be easily removed.
The upper ends of the back headersare connected by longer pipes to the back cross-box, and their lower ends by short pipes to a horizontal mud drum to which a blow-off cock and pipe are attached.
The upper ends of the front headers are connected by short tubes to the front cross-box of the horizontal cylinder, the lower ends being closed.
The headers are made of wrought steel, and except the outer pairs, which are flat on the outer portions, they are sinuous on both sides, the sinuosities fitting into one another.
The joints between plates and headers are made with a thin gasket.
The sections were composed of small tubes with a slight double curve, but being practically vertical, fixed in horizontal headers, which headers were in turn connected to a steam space above and a water space below formed of larger pipes.
Either of these designs may be constructed with vertical or inclined headers, and the headers in turn may be of wrought steel or cast iron dependent upon the working pressure for which the boiler is constructed.
The headers may be of different lengths, that is, may connect different numbers of tubes, and it is by a change in the number of tubes in height per section and the number of sections in width that the size of the boiler is varied.
In boilers of the inclined header type, access to the rear headers is secured through the chamber formed by the headers and the rear boiler wall.
The joints between headers introduced an element of weakness and the connections to the drum were insufficient to give adequate circulation.
Illustration: Inside Handhole Fitting Wrought-steel Inclined Header] In the wrought-steel inclined headers the handhole openings are either circular or elliptical, the former being ordinarily supplied.
This tendency is the result of the lack of proper circulation and once more there is seen the advantage of the headers of the Babcock & Wilcox boiler, resulting as it does in the securing of a positive circulation.
Rear headers in the inclined header designs may be inspected from the chamber formed by such headersand the rear wall of the boiler.
Illustration: Wrought-steel Vertical Header] Opposite each tube end in the headers there is placed a handhole of sufficient size to permit the cleaning, removal or renewal of a tube.
All fire-brick linings should be laid up four courses of headers and one stretcher.
The east wall showed pairs of bricks placed at right angles to each other, so that headers and stretchers appeared alternately.

Heart bond (Masonry), a bond in which no header stone stretches across the wall, but two headers meet in the middle, and their joint is covered by another stone laid header fashion.
Defn: A beam, into which are framed the ends of headers in floor framing, as when a hole is to be left for stairs, or to avoid bringing joists near chimneys, and the like.
The first and third courses are stretchers and the middle course is composed of headers laid to form a dentil course.
The bond is common, varying from three courses of stretchers to one of headers at the foundations, to five to one at the gable end.

Through bonding stones or headers should be frequently built in, and the whole of the work executed in cement mortar to ensure stability.
Another method of bonding brickwork, instead of placing the bricks in alternate courses of headers and stretchers, places them alternately as headers and stretchers in the same course, the appearance of the course being the same on each face.
The bond of an arch obtains its name from the arrangement of headers and stretchers on its soffit.
The bond usually adopted is one course of headers to four of stretchers.
In very cheap work headers and trimmers are sometimes spiked together.
For very good work, where heavy weights are to be carried, trimmers and headers should be supported on wrought-iron strips.
Thus there is a continuous row of alternating headers and stretchers in the bond course, which occurs, as said before, each seventh course.
The above list will hopefully give you a few useful examples demonstrating the appropriate usage of "headers" in a variety of sentences. We hope that you will now be able to make sentences using this word.
