Dredges: Their Construction and Performance
In his excellent review of the progress made during the past ten years in all classes of dredges, A. W. Robinson, M. Am. Soc. C. E., considers four types of the hydraulic or suction dredge. The present paper will have to do mainly with the first of these types, namely, the sea-going, hopper type, without anchorage, and will consider particularly the development of this type within the past twenty years in the United States. This development has resulted from experience and repeated failures in attempting to use on ocean bars and in other exposed localities dredges of the dipper or grapple type, with auxiliary plant for the removal of material dredged.
