I have seen several expensive bridges washed off abutments during a time of high water when anchor bohl which bad been omitted would have saved them. The state highway engineer is fre quently ashed about tubular piers, and the inquirer is generally prgqdiced against theifl. The proper material out of which to build piers or abutments ? Is stone and concrete, fibular pien are, however,, an excellent substitute. TJjey hive been used for years no! only on hlghwny work, but also by railroads. There are several reasons for this. In the first place, ther* fa usually a vast difference hi the cost, and were it not for the tubular pier anany bridges in Missouri could, not have been built. Concrtte or masonry pien require more* excavation, and when water level Is reached an expen sive cofferdam is required along with much more pumping than is neeessar? in sinking a tubular pier, which itself always acts as a cofferdam. When there is no rock foundation tho differ ence In cost is even greater. There have b^en more failures oi concrete and tnaKunry pier's than ther? have been of^tubular piers. In mosl cases this ?s due to tho poor construc tion of the masonry. Therefore tbdrc are many ma&ous piers built of tho name class of Bifff and In the same manner the mason employs when building a cellar waif 1 id his locality. 1 The preusure agnlnst a tubular pte! at time ll hi^h water 1h not wrest ow ing to its cylindrical fonn; It I* alsc not :*pt t<> hold ^rift for thU reason I f ta bfed ? r.i ?i ?? to ??fn toboldr plet I on a r<v : r ?
