In November, 1903, the writer began a series of experiments, upon the comparative values of nickel steel and carbon steel for bridge building, for the purpose of preparing from them an exhaustive economic study of the subject of “Nickel Steel for Bridges.” These experiments extended over three years. The first step was to collect and read all the literature upon nickel steel bearing upon the subject, and, as this was rather meager, the task was soon completed. Although much was learned in this way concerning nickel steel in general, little was ascertained about the composition of the alloy most suitable for bridge building.
