To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Such mixing and spreading by hand will cost approximately 60 cts. per cubic yard; the cost of the concrete will depend upon varying conditions, and will range from $4.00 to $6.00 per cubic yard in place. Maximum Pressures. — The action of the wind upon the cylindrical surface of a tank and the application of that force as pressure upon the base has been previously explained." The normal pressure due to the load is the weight divided by 234 TOWERS AAD TANA'S FOR WATER-WORKS, the area, and the ma...ximum pressure to be transferred to the subfoundations will consist both of the normal and variable pressures. From the principles of resistance of materials, previously explained, the ''live load** or variable pressure due to the wind can be found from the formula Wind pressure = — j ; and the maximum pressure will therefore be A/r W ,Ml Max. pressure —^ H j ; where M = moment of the wind ; / = the leverage at the base ; / = moment of inertia of the shape. Where it becomes necessary to extend the base of a foundation in order not to overload the bearing soil, the foundations will extend in regular courses, and the safe pro- jection of the successive courses will depend upon the pres- sure applied as force and the resisting quality of the material of which the courses are composed.
