What reading level is Forth Bridge book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
From each other, and from these a number of horizontal tie-bars with cross-bars at the ends were carried radially and level to the rock opposite and pinned to it, and afterwards built into the solid rubble masonry. (See Fig. 22. ) This mode of making the joint between the rock and the iron belt was simple and quite effective. j Most of the leaks were due to natural crevices in the rock, running from the inside to the outside at a considerable depth. These were circumvented by building small cla...y dams round, and leading the 1 water by a shoot to a pump. Lc^ks were also FIFE SOUTH CIRCULAR PIERS. As the two south piers on Fife were also situated oil the sloping face of the rock, and required excava- tion at different depths, a somewhat similar course was followed in the construction of the cofferdams or caissons, but with one important difference. In the case of Inchgarvie the caissons were set on the rock, and secured to it, as far as possible, by weight- ing them, and the joint was made good previous to any blasting of rock near the 60-ft.
