_--As shown on Fig. 7, the face of the north abutment has abatter of 2 in. To the foot, and the face of the south abutment has avariable batter, the base being on a grade and the bridge seat being level, and both maintaining a uniform distance from the center of the TerminalYard. The back walls of the abutments were not built until the steel hadbeen put in place. No attempt was made to water-proof these abutments, but, in the rear of thewall, open spaces were left, about 6 ft. From center to ce...nter, which wereconnected with drain pipes at the base of and extending through the wall, for the purpose of carrying off any water that might develop in the rock. These drains were formed by building wooden boxes with the side toward therock open and the joints in the boxes and against the rock plastered withmortar in advance of the wall. A hose was used to run water through thesedrains during the placing of the concrete, for the purpose of washing outany grout which might run into them. Each box was washed out at frequentintervals, and there was no clogging of the drains whatever.
