Core studies in the hydraulic-fill dams of the Miami conservancy district
It is shown that gradation of core material may be controlled during construction, even with borrow-pit materials of widely different character; considerable excess of fines is required in borrow-pit material; reasonably wide core may be obtained with absolute safety; fairly high percentage of extremely fine material in core is not objectionable, provided material is properly graded. (See also - no. 3 (discussion) Mar 1922, pp. 453-473, 11 figs.)
