Excerpt from Laboratory Manual for the Use of Students in Testing Materials of Construction
In 1908 the writer published a manual for the use of students in cement laboratory practice. The present volume contains nearly all of the matter included in the former work, in addition to which there are problems in the testing of other materials used in engineering construction, including tests of concrete, stone, brick, asphalt, sand and gravel, wood, iron, and steel. This volume is particularly intended for the use of those schools which include in one course all of the work in testing materials which is required of their students. However, a sufficient number of problems are outlined to permit the manual to be used in those schools in which the work is subdivided into two courses. If the entire field is covered by one course, it is probable that a considerable number of the problems will have to be omitted.
The Cement Laboratory Manual was prepared for the use of students taking the course in cement laboratory practice in the University of Illinois, and for the use of others requiring such a manual.
