What are the purposes of Tie Rods

1. It holds cylinder block, A frame and bed plate together

2. Transfer the firing and compression pressures (tensile  stresses) to the bed plate.

3.The tensile stresses which creating  during compression and firing may cause fatigue failure
    of engine component, which eliminate by the tie rods.

3. Because of  it fitted close to crank shaft, prevent bending of transverse girders.
