Engineer Reports
On Bridge Collapse
O. B. McCnllouffli, After Inspection of
Independence Span, Bays Work nias
tratea Polly of So-Called "Economy
Dallas. Or., Oct. 7. The report of C.
B. McCullough, of the engineering de
partment of O. A. C, who was engaged
by the county court of Polk county to
make an inspect ionlif the new concrete
bridge at Independence, which col
lapsed whlh the superstructure was
removed, has been filed with the court.
In the preamble of his report the engi
neer says: "The Incident serves a
valuable purpose In illustrating the
folly and shortsightedness of any pol
icy that economizes on engineering and
inspectlonal services at the risk of
failures such as this."
Summarized, the report Is as fol
lows: The design was In no" way re
sponsible for the failure of the struc
ture. Tt Is not probable that the ce
ment shad anything to do with the
failure. Some of the sand used was
very fine. This undoubtedly caused
the formation of weak spots' in the
concrete, but probably would not alone
have caused failure. Careless and In
correct methods of construction were
probably -chiefly responsible for tho
failure. For this Careless construction
the contractor is In large measure re
sponsible, but the county 19 in a minor
degree responMble (morally at least).
In that careful Inspection was not In
sisted upon.
