The Bull run storage dam for Portland, Ore.
Features of gravity section, 200 ft. high, arched in plan to prevent sliding; denser mix on both faces; strict sanitary rules govern 500-man camp on watershed; total cost of storage project $2,800,000; comparison of estimated and actual costs; distribution and stress-strength relation of two grades of concrete used; section of dam, showing drainage system. (see also discussion in no. 17, Oct. 24, 1929, pp. 664-666, 2 figs)
