The behavior of Portland cement in sea water has long been a subject of discussion by chemists and engineers; yet the lack of complete experimental data, on one hand, and vast amounts of material and labor placed at stake in most harbor works of magnitude relying on the durability of cement, on the other, seem to make any results of investigation on its nature a matter of ever recurrent interest, especially to those engaged on maritime works. It is under such an impression that the writer presents some of the results of his still unfinished experiments, the completion of which, however, he may not live to see.
