Shannon hydro-electric power scheme
June 1928 n 6 p 439-446: Origin and general arrangement; stages of development; divisions of work; weir and intake; headrace; power station; net full varies from 85 ft. 6 in. to 115 ft.; tailrace. July 1928 n 7 p 477-485: Crushing and washing plant; gravel-washing plant at weir; steel bending; concrete mixes and tests. Aug 1928 n 8 p 555-558: Building embankments; embankments of Shannon are 59 ft. high, and have to be built up in horizontal layers; method of working; main technical data of transporters. Sept 1928 n 9 p 603-607: Reinforced-concrete bridges; cantilever bridges; loads used in designing bridge; staging and formwork adopted on these bridges. Oct 1928 n 10 p 653-659: Concreting plant; use of Wolff tower crane moving on broad-gage track laid out on terrace formed in bank below lower edge of concrete slab; minimum 10-hr. output of this plant is 460 cu. yd. of mass concrete; concreting at weir and intake.
