Mechanical Laboratory 1. [McKergow and Instructors; Afternoon
Hours.]

The class is divided into squads so small that each man receives
the personal care of an instructor. The work of the Fall Term consists
in a careful study of the standard methods for testing Hydraulic
Cements. In the Winter Term a similar course is given in Timber
Tests, with both small specimens and full sized beams. In the Spring
Term the principal Metals used in Construction are taken up and
tested for strength, elasticity and other important properties.
