CHAPTEK XIV.
LOWERING THROUGH WATER PLASTIC OR FRESHLY- MIXED CONCRETE
... AND CONCRETE BLOCKS.
Necessary precautions — Some different systems, &c.
Water must not be allowed to percolate through plastic or freshly mixed concrete, and it should be at the head level to prevent any local flow, and to ensure that the concrete is deposited in still water instead of in a current. If calm water is impracticable the concrete should be made richer than would otherwise be necessary, so as to provide for some of the cement being washed out and lost. Concrete of the usual proportions will generally be secure against the action of moderate seas, after it has been deposited for twenty-four hours ; but a practical test should be made in each particular case.
