held for the purpose of hearing a
standard specifications.
Absorption 1.46
Sample Number Fiva. Taken from
Portland.
Size of Sample: -12x10 inches.
TreatmentThis sample was treat­
ed in a manner identical with the ,fore-
going, except that as it was one solid
piece of bitumenous concrete, no sep­
arate analysis of the “Sand Course
was made.
ObservationsThis sample appeared
to consist of one solid course of bitum-
enaus concrete, well mixed and uni­
formly laid, and of an average thick­
ness of 3J inches coated on the top
with a “flush coat” of basalt chips.
The sample was free from cracks and
laminations, and had every appearance
of being a well-laid “Standard Bitu­
lithic” pavement.
• '
The rock used was crushed basalt of
proper quality.
Analysis showed a proper amount of
asphalt of good quality and consist­
ency.
i'he proportions of rock, chips, sand
and asphalt seem to be proper for a
good pavement.
On the whole this is a good pave­
ment and should give good satisfac­
tion wherever such a pavement is
proper.
Absorption 0.23 per cent
Sample Number Six. Taken from
Stillwell Avenue.
Size of sample 19x11 inches.
TreatmentThis sample was sub-
jected to the same treatment ¡as num!

Observations:—This sample
peared to consist of two distinct eour-
3es:—a bitumenous sand course of
• an
average depth of 2j inches, foverlaid a
bitumenous sand course of an average
thickness of J inch. The concrete
course showed some signs of segrega­
tion, and the sample showed a number
of what weie evidently ol i cracks, in­
asmuch as the dirt has percolated
Jown into them almost to the base. It
looked somewhat as though the con­
crete had been laid too cold.
Conclusions:—This is the poorest
sample submitted, showing the great­
est absorbing power, the lowest den ■
sity, and the least careful work.
Sample Number Seven. Taken from
Corvallis.
Size of sample 11x11 inches.
Treatment:—This sample was treat­
ed in the same manner as the pre­
ceding ones.
Observations:— This sample ap­
peared to be one solid course of bitu-
•nenous concrete, well mixed, properly
proportioned and uniformly laid. No
cracks, laminations, or segregation
was in evidence. The average thick
ness was 3J inches. The rock used
was crushed basalt of proper quality,
and the sample seemed properly pro­
portioned and dense.
Conclusions:—The analysis as given
showed the sample to
be prop-
erly proportioned mixture of rocks,
chips, sand and asphalt, to be of far
density and non absorbant. This is a
true “Bitulithic” pavement according
to the standard specifications.
Absorption 0.47 percent.
