text: It is to be particularly noted that while, as is very evident, my revetment is susceptible of flexing, due to bending'ot the ropes 6 at'points between the blocks through which these ropes extend, the revetment is also capable of flexing in the opposite direction, as it is important that it shall, in order that the revetment may settle perfectly upon an embankment, notwithstanding the existence of depressions or ridges extending The flexing of the revetment in a direction transversely of that permitted by the flexing of the ropes 6 between the blocks occurs readily, due to the possible pivotal movement of sets of the blocks on the ropes 6 that pass therethrough; and, when such pivotal movement takes place, the pivoting blocks andthose adjacent thereto may readily move either downwardly or upwardly to seat properly into depressions or on ridges beneath them.
