cutting to the south and put in the solid rock. The stream could

easily have been trained into it and all that was raqukred was

a twelve foot high wall on one side founded on solid rock and

a cut through the end of the cutting over which fifteen foot

girders might have been placed.

23.

Bridges 22 and 22-A might have been founded in a

similar way. Bridea No. 22 developed cracks in the parapet

walls about twelve feet from the end in both the twenty foot

spans. This was due to insufficient backing on the twenty foot

spans owing to which the line of pressure came too close to the

intrados of the twenty foot arches. I have had extra weight

put on.

24.

Bridge No. 22-A is a double barrelled culvert which

had cracked badly parallel to the xxx centre line of the Rail-

-way. The floor of the culvert was built in reinforced concrete

and the crack occurred at the junction of the rod lengths which

showed an insufficient lap. The crack has been grouted up with

cement mortar and shme charmel irons which were spare have been

dowelled in to the floor and concreted over. Along the side

walls iron dowels have been placed and the cracks grouted up.

There is a good cushion over the barrels.

Bridge No.

33.

I have had levels taken hetween the

/

two centre spans of this bridge and the result shows that there

has been ascour of about two feat throughout. In this connection

kindly refer to Mr. A. J. Barry's report. The depth of founda-

-tions is only five feet below the river bed as you will see

from the ferro type which shows what I am having carried out.

The only way to get in the drop walls will be to grab them and

to pack in cement concrete in bags. It will be better to put a

drop wall on the up stream side as wells. I am conscious that

the two foot floor proposed is not very thick and if possible

to divert the stream through ons opening at a time, I will have

the floor faced with flat rubble slabs set in cement.
