While it is possible to build brick or concrete underground chamber that will remain dry if built in suitable ground, it is necessary to use cast iron tubbing to obtain this condition where subsoil water level is near ground surface or where bad ground is likely to be met; tubbings can be built of either segments or solid rings; construction procedure described and illustrated, with special reference to tubbing for housing of sewage ejectors. (See also Civ Eng (Lond) v 38 n 446 Aug 1943 p 179-82)
