الصفحة 367 - In order that the stones may not be liable to be broken across, no stone of a soft material, such as the weaker kinds of sandstone, and granular limestone, should have a length greater than 3 times its depth. In harder materials, the length may be 4 or 5 times the depth. The breadth in soft material may range from 1 J times to double the depth : in hard materials it may be 3 times the depth.
الصفحة 407 - J feet above datum line (100 feet extreme height)* by filling in a stone embankment on the lower side of the old structure, faced with heavy walls of dry rubblestone of large size.

Allowance must be made for the security required, that is, if the breakage of the pipe will cause much damage it is advisable to lower the margin for greater safety. The diameter of the rivets usually used are: No.
الصفحة 417 - There are various sizes of it used, from one-fourth to 2 inches broad in the blade, and 3 inches long generally. The purpose of the trowel is to clean away and smooth down the surface of the sand, to press down and polish the blackening, repair injured parts of the moulding, and so on.
الصفحة 72 - ... the specific gravity of each ingredient by the difference between it and the specific gravity of the compound. As the sum of the products is to the respective products, so is the specific gravity of the body to the proportions of the ingredients ; then as the specific gravity of the compound is to the weight of the compound, so are each of the proportions to the weight of its material. — The following table presents the specific gravities of substances most likely to be referred to, collected...
