What reading level is Fourth Series, Bulletin, Issue 2 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

He gives to Mr. W. E. Ward the credit of having first used steel reinforced concrete in a scientific manner in a building which he erected in Port Chester, N. Y., in 1875. Mr. Ward constructed a building in which "not only all the external and internal walls, cornices and towers were con- structed of beton (the word concrete was not then in use), but all the beams and roofs were exclusively made of beton reinforced with light-iron beams and rods." "Francois Coignet of Paris, in 1869, took out p...atents on a combina- tion of beton and iron rods, but he had no conception of the proper method of using the materials." Monier built his first wire and beton flower pots in 1876, but the manner in which he combined the two materials showed that he did not understand the principles of reinforced concrete. He placed the wire webbing in the neutral axis of the slab; while it answered his purpose, it would be disastrous to attempt such construction upon beams or in bridges.
Thaddeus Hyatt, of England, began experiments upon reinforced concrete in 1876, the result of which he published in 1877.
