What reading level is The Catskill Water Supply of New York City History Location Sub Surface Inves book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
A distinguishing feature of this contract was the extensive use made of 3 Lidgerwood-Page- Crawford excavators, which operated scraper buckets and did all the main trench excavation excepting the above mentioned heavy cut. The record made by these excavators on Contract 45 working in glacial drift with some boulders is rather poor when compared with steam shovels. They rarely excavated more than 10 feet of com- plete aqueduct trench of 12 to 14 feet cut in one shift of eight hours, 392 CATSKILL... WATER SUPPLY or about 60 cubic yards, whereas the steam shovel in like material could make from 50 to 60 feet.
In comparing the excavator and shovel for aqueduct purposes, the following was experienced on this contract: (1) The steam shovel generally moves along on level ground in the cut, whereas the Page excavator w r orks in advance of the cut, and therefore must go along the grades of the original ground. In wet ground this may be an advantage, as the cut tends to drain the water away from the surface, leaving the excavator on dry ground.
