below L.V.0.8.7. - in accordance with which a length of

about 170 feet was completed before the all-rubble type of

foundation was adopted - is we consider satisfactory and

preferable to his first design, and the passage of vater

to and from the back of the wall would readily take plase

through the upper 13 feet of the foundations composed of

quarry spalls and rubble, without disturbance of the sand

beneath.

14. Replying them to points (a) and (b); we are of

opinion that sand, of the quality of the sample forwarded,

may be used satisfactorily and economically in the quay wall

foundations at this site in severdance with kir, Dunoan's

modified design, subject to the sonditions that the minimum

bettem width of the dredged trench is as indiosted on

drawing - P, that the coating of quarry spalla be every-

where extended fully to cover the surface of the sand filling

in the trench, and that a minimum width of apron of 50 feet

in front of the wall be carefully maintained with full

thicknesses of rubble above to the extent and of the sizes

described in the sixth paragraph of Mr. Baker's memorandum.

16. The all-rubble type of design which has now been

adopted provides less width of protection in front of the

vall and would appear to be mere destly. Moreover,

should anticipate the settlement of the blockwerk vall above

to be greater than in the case of the wall constructed en a

foundation of which the lower portion is sand.

16.

In reply to point (e), we consider that if the

rubble backing is deposited and the filling consolidated

behind the wall to the level of the top of the blockwork

before the superstructure is built, it will be unnecessary

to load the substructure in the manner suggested over those

lengths of the wall the foundations of which have been
