State Council To Consider Baldock's 'Roman Road' i By PAUL V. HARVEY JR ' SALEM Ml Thirty-one years agp. state hlshway engineer R. H. Baldock. then ft division engineer in Eastern Oregon, wondered why tn old Romrn roads nem up so -'Weil after 2.5U0 years o( use. After studying the nueslicn, he concluded thnt the roads remained strong been use their foundations were about three feet deep. Baldock put his new Idea Into practice in building the Old Ore-'eroad lho.se should be the limits, consid ering 32,000 pounds on a tandem to be a little too high. The test showed that the. area of pavement distress is 14 per cent greater under the Impact of 32,000 pounds per axle than with 18.000 pounds. And It Is 48 per cent great er under 40.000 pounds per tandem then under 32,000 pounds. Tn simple words. It means that bigger load limits would break up aon Trail through the Blue Moun tains in 1924. It had a gravel base 24 to 30 Inches thick. That was n The report also says that the lighUhand wheels on trucks cause more damage than the left-hand radical innovation at the lime, and I It y 'he WV lo equal' sc mn xa iu puvo wis snuumers. Oregon already Is paving Its jhouldcrc. "We're glad the test confirms our theories." Baldock says, "it's a good thing to have scientific evi dence lo back us up., . "The report will be of great vanre in convincing state legisla tures they shouldn't allow bigger trucks on the Highways." the rond held lip. On Friday, In Denver, the Coun cil of State Governments for the 11 Western states will consider the engineering- report of the Western Assn. of Highway OHicials. This report confirms Baldock's "Roman road" theory, and all other engi neering practices of the Oregon Highway commission, The report Is the result of an ; two-year pavement lest in Bouthcrn Idaho. All types of pavc- - mcnt were tested under the stress of many kinds of trucks. It proved thtit, under present truck load limits, the best road Is four Inches of asphnltio concrcto on top of at least 10 Inches of baso. Oregon's standard Is four Inches of pavement with a 12-inch base. On the Porlland-Salcm Express way, there Is four-inch pavement cn 18 inches of baso. . "We build the roads stronger than normally ' needed," Baldock raid, "because uc always add a 25 per cent safety factor. That's so that one heavily' overloaded truck won't break up the road. It also reduces maintenance costs." Some stales, which have been building roads below the" standardr recommended by the report, will have to build heavier roads if they want them to stand up. Oregon's load limits, like those of most other Western stales, arc 18,000 pounds on a single axle, or J2.000 pounds on a tandrm (tour whoen combination. Baldock figured In 1934 that the maximum limits should bu 18.000 Lakeview US Lists Queen Candidates LAKEVIEW Heidi Tax, senior, Louisn Oarrctt, Junior, Lou Sam ples, sopnomore and Louise Vena lor, freshman, are the four candi dates running lor queen of the annual Varsity L Carnival on No vembcr 4.
