Repairs. The simplicity of repairs is one of the great advan- tages of concrete ships. Minor repairs can frequently be carried out at sea by the crew ; and every concrete ship should, there- fore, carry a small supply of materials for the purpose, such as : 2 bags of Portland Cement. 4, coarse, clean sand, 4 Ib. Of alum. \ gall, water-glass (sodium silicate). 12 \ inch diam. Round steel rods 6 feet long. ** A, 55 55 55 55 The cement must be stored in a dry place or kept in an air- tight tin. Pe...netration of Moisture can be remedied by brushing the face exposed to water-pressure with a hot 5 per cent, solution of soft soap. When this has dried a warm 5 per cent, solution of SHIPBUILDING CONCRETE 143 alum is applied in the same way. The treatment should be repeated two or three times. Leakage through a small crack or hole can be stopped by filling the crack or hole with neat cement mixed with water-glass. The mixture should be stiff, and must be held in position during the setting by centring ; the mixture hardens very rapidly.
