Review of literature dealing with problem; special attention directed to possible causes of cracking on Parker Dam, concrete arch structure spanning Colorado River 155 mi below Boulder Dam; present author does not believe that alkali excess of few tenths of one per cent can chemically affect siliceous ingredients of aggregates; it is presumed that not all types of rock used in Parker Dam aggregates were fit to be used.
