(Fig. 15. ) LOWEB YELLOWSTONE DAM, MONT.
IU. S. Reclamation Service. ] This structure on the Lower Yellowstone project of the United States Reclamation Service is a rock-filled, timber-crib weir on a pile foundation. It has a height of 12 feet and raises the water about 5 feet. The bed of the Yellowstone River at this point consisted of sand and gravel, in places firmly cemented with clay, with occasional detached fragments of ledge rock. In order to obtain a firm footing without excessive exca
...vation, piles were driven averaging 6 feet cen- ters in a line transversely with the dam and 8 feet centers longitudi- nally with the dam, and were then framed together, as shown in figure 16. These piles extended to an average depth of 20 feet, where a stratum of tough blue clay was encountered, which gave an excel- lent bearing. At the upper and lower toes of the dam, respectively, a row of sheet piling was driven to an average depth of 15 feet. The piling used was of sufficient length to project well above the water surface and thus form a cofferdam during the construction.
