A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
Geological and engineering investigations; strikingly new features in 405ft. high arch-and-gravity dam to be built in Oregon; deep fracture fault in floor rock may require cut-off 100 ft. below base; floating ring-shaped spillway gate; elevator in dam; study of alternative designs; special features of structure both arch and gravity action relied upon; sluice gate outlets; needle-valve outlets; power-penstock outlets; diversion tunnel. (see also West. Constr. News, vol. 3, no. 9, May 10, 1928, pp. 284-291, 13 figs.; New Reclamation Era, vol. 19, no. 5, June 1928, pp. 82-85, 1 fig.; Hydraulic Eng., vol. 4, no. 9, Sept. 1928, pp. 548-549, 574 and 588-589, 2 figs)
