Describes method of preventing uplift, rather than neutralizing it; it consists in provision of water-tight membrane or sheet, placed as near up-stream face of dam as is practicable, with, in addition, system of under-drainage to ensure removal of any seepage from foundation bed. See discussion in no. 10, Dec. 1926, pp. 2042-2045, and vol. 53, no. 1, Jan. 1927, pp. 110-118, 1 fig.
