pany which will play three nights

Use of Concrete for Building
Material

The United States Geological Survey
officials are doing very u2eful and nee
essary work formulating specific rules
fol- the use OF concrete as a structural
material, says the Philadelphia Record.
The laboratory experiments for testing
the strength of concrete and OF REIN
forced concrete beams, columns and
floor slabs are made primarily In behalf
of the Government, but the conclusions
reached are OF the greatest general value.
Concrete has boone OF such establish
ed use as building material that the
proper and safe methods of making it
and using it should be enforced by
municipal regulation.
Expert examination on behalf OF the
Geological Survey Of the cause OF the
recent collapse Of concrete structures in
Philadelphia and other cities do not in
dictate any discovered defect in the ma
terlal itself. In every instance collapse
has been the result Of either carlessness
or ignorance on the part of builders or
OF unskilled labor. If the materials out
Of which concrete is rade are properly
mixed, properly adjusted, braced, rein
fc reed and allowed sufficient time to
harden there can be no danger Of break
down.
The material lends itself admirably to
many forms of durable construction. 1t
Is cheap it is fireproof and weather.
proof. But like many other good things
of odern use for various purposes its
mood to be carefully stud.
led and made generally known The
work of the Geological Survey should
have the careful attention Of officials Ct
all cities charged with the making of
building regulations. Concrete con
struction should be subjected to the
and approval Of trained in
spectors acting under authority of such
revised building ordinances as are found
to be necessary for the protection q
life and property.
