BOOM IN MATERIAL TESTING
Increase in Facilities Has Grown Rap
idly In Past Few Years in
Different States

The great boom in highway build.
ing which has come since the federal
aid act of 1916 has led to an increase
in the facilities for testing highway
materials. The bureau Of public roads
Of the United States Department Of
Agriculture keeps in touch with all
laboratories which test material for
federal-aid roads and reports that the
number has grown from a scattered
few in 1916 TO at least one in every
state with two exceptions. They are
distributed as follows: State highway
department laboratories 20, university
laboratories p. and commercial labor
atories 81 a total of GS.
Conditions have become such that II
is practically a necessity for each
state 10 have means of quick testing
in order not to delay work. In pass
ing on materials the laboratories are
governed by the idea that roads must
be constructed with materials close at
hand wherever possible and give as
surance for the use Of such material
where it Is suitable.

Some of the lighter sections of the
Bates experimental road failed under
the traffic of light trucks driven along
the edge of the surfaces on the first
day OF the test. The road. which was
especially constructed for the expert

state highway department OF Illinois
In cooperation with the bureau OF

and consists OF numerous sections OF
different types of construction.
On March 30. the day the road was
opened for the tests, 10 trucks with
bodies removed to make load OF
$500 pounds on each rear wheel were
started on trips, which will continue
with increasing loads until the suit

trucks were driven so that the outside

the sections began to fall. This was
