To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Granite blocks on a concrete base are not laid with close joints. The idea is not to fill the joints entirely with paving-cement, but leave them sufficiently open so that they can be filled with gravel and then the interstices in the gravel filled with a paving- cement which forms a perfectly tight joint and one which, if broken during the cold weather, will soften and become perfect again at a higher temperature. The joints should be left just wide enough to allow them to be filled with a grav...el which will permit the pitch to flow ea.«ily through the interstices and thus make a solid joint. A joint } of an inch wide after the blocks are rammed is sufficient to accomplish this purpose. Gravel for such a joint should be screened so that it will all be retained in a screen having ^-inch mesh, and will pass a screen of ^-inch mesh. If the gravel be flner and allowed to grade down to coarse sand, it will not allow a free flowing of the cement, and the lower part of the joint will not be filled.
