continually at strife, and built mainly;

Heretofore financial conditions and
the rnpld growth of progress have
made it necessary to do some things In
tbe line of bridge building which were
regret tabic because the prime object
was to build cheap and sometimes
quickly built structures. That state
of affairs is Improving, and 1 arb sure
wo all agree that the Mass of bridge**
we lire td build in this state In the fu
turo should keep pace with the im
proved conditions.

When the fundi; are on hand nnd the
conditions at the site aro favorable it
is best to build a concrete- arch. It
will also be found to l._? economical In
the long run to build concrete floor*
on all stsei bridges regardless of the
length of span.

neers should see that bridges are- plac
ed rt a sufficient height above high
water so that they wtH not catch
drift, Fartlruinr intention should also
be given to the placing of anchor bolts.
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
