 quenching. There was apparently little difference in the strength of the bricks before and after firing. The natural building stone behaved the worst of all the material tested. The almost com plete destruction of these stones pre- cludes any comparison between them. The sandstone panel entirely collapsed soon after the tests were started
 Damage To Concrete.
 The testing engineers report that it was difficult to determine whether the con- crete made. of limestone, granite, gravel CT cinders sustained the least damage Their surfaces were all rather badly pit ted by the fire and washed away by the stream of water The test was unfair to cinder concrete. the sample of cin- der was very poor, containing a large per centage of unburned coal, which ignited and left the surface of the concrete badly pitted. The granite concrete probably behaved the best. The damage in no case extended very far into the concrete, prop- ably not more than 11s inches. The evil dence shows that even at this depth the temperature was comparatively low. The rapid heating of the face of the concrete, while the back remained cool, caused the concrete to crack vertically for some dis tance back from the face. The cracking Of the concrete can be avoided it is be-
 
 which would distrihute the effect of the expansion. The tests also brought out most clearly the low rate at which the l4eat travels through concrete. This is one of the desirable qualities in materials intended for fire -proofing purposes.
 Mortar Must Be Rich.
 Linen tags which were placed in the hollow concrete blocks when they were nodded. were found to be undamaged after the fire test In many instances, the hollow blocks split after being sub iected to the fire and water test. It was noticeable that the richer the nor tars used in these blocks, the less they were affected by the test. The mortars mixed with tie greatest percentage of water gave the best results The wetter, richer mixtures in these tests stood out j apparently undamaged in contrast with the damaged faces of the leaINr, dryer blocks. It is apparent that one of the causes of weakness in the hollow cement building blocks is in the weakness of the concrete, due to a too dry and thin mixture which, coupled with the thin ness of the webs-the thin pieces con meeting the walls of the blocks to give strength insufficient strength to resist the rapid expansion of the face of the blocks under test By making the webs thicker. they can he made~to stand the fire test satisfactorily.
