ROAD MATERIAL TESTS.

In the Road Material Tests the machines used are mainly those
devised by Dr. Logan Waller Page, director of the United States office
of public roads. For measuring the strength of the stone cylindrical
samples are cut out with a diamond drill and tested under impact and in
a 40,000-pound compression machine. The resistance to abrasion is
measured on fragments of the stone, rotated in heavy cast iron cylinders
mounted on their diagonals. The binding power of the dust is measured
by impact tests on cylindrical briquettes formed under heavy hydraulic
pressure. The dust for these briquettes is produced in a ball mill fed with
fine stone broken in a small crusher. This part of the testing outfit has
been installed largely by the generous aid of Dr. Page. Useful experimental
researches on the road-building rocks and gravels of Virginia are carried
out with it each year, as well as class demonstrations of the standard
tests for road materials.
