When mud or other soft material is encountered,
it shall be taken out and the space filled with good earth
or gravel, which shall be rolled until the surfaee of the
foundation ceases to sink or creep in front of the roller. The
ContractoT, however, will not be required in such aases to
excavate the mud or otJ;1er soft material to a gore.at.er depth
than two (2) feet below sub-grade.
All filling shall be done wi th good sound earth or
gravel.
Whenever a fill is macle, the embankment shall be
brought up in l~ers not exceeding one (1) foot in depth and
each layer shall be thoroughly dampened and rolled with a
roller weighing not less than four hundred (400) pouncls per

neat briquettes w1~1 be mixed with sufficient water to reduce
the cement to normal consistenoy as prescribed by the Committee
of the American SOCiety of Oivil Engineers. :Neat brique ttes
will be pressed into the molds by ban.d, and the mortar briquettes
will be compacted-by light tapping. Mortar briquettes shall be
mixed to a state o:f. pla-stici ty corresporiLi.ng as nearly as po ssi-
ble to normal consistenoy in neat briquettes.
(b) Fineness. The cement :must be. evenly ground, an.d when
tested with the following standard sieves, must pass at least the
following percentages by weight;
!Jo. 100 sieve, having 100 meshes per lineal inch--92 per cent
No. 200 sieve 'having 200 meshes per lineal inch--75 per cent.
(c) Time of Setting.It shall develop initial set in not less
than thirty mihutes, but must develop hard set in not less t~~n
one hour nor more than ten hours.
(d) ~ensile Strens-th. Neat briquettes one (1) inch square
in section shall at.t,ain a minimum tensi.lestrength as ibllOJ!Is:
At 24 hours in moist air. . . . . . . . . .. 175 Ibs.
At 7 d.ays(l day in moist air, 6 d~s in wat.er. . . 500 Ibs.
At 28 days (1 daY in moist air, 2'7 days in water) 600 lbs.
Briquettes one (1) inch square in section, made of one
part of cement to three (3) part.s of standard testing sand,
shall attain a minimum: tensile strength as follows:
At ." days (1 day in moist air, 6 c1a.ys in water) 175 lbs.
At 28 days (1 d~ in moist air, 27 days in water) 250 Its.
The sand test must in all eases show an increase in
strength at 28 days OVer the 7 d~ tests.
(e) Soundneas. Fats of neat cement, about three (3)
inohes in c11ameller one...half (t) ineh t,hiok at the center t and
