Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rock Excavation: Methods and Cost The value of the mineral products of America annually exceeds $1,000,000,000. For explosives alone the sum of $20,000,000 is expended each year, and it is well within limits to say that fully twice as great a sum is paid out to drillers and blasters. When we consider the labor, the power and the powder required to mine and to quarry products in the aggregate so enormously valuable, we can not fail to be impressed with the scantiness of literature on the economics of rock excavation. A dozen years ago, when called upon to estimate the cost of some open cut rock excavation, I was astonished to find no text book that in the least served to guide me. I subsequently learned also that most of the matter to be found in the few books on blasting was either theoretic or too meagre to be of material value. What was true then has unfortunately remained true. In the preparation of this volume, it was my original intention to give only condensed cost data on rock excavation - including in that term, quarrying, open cut work, trenching, tunneling, and underground excavation; but, as the writing progressed, it become more and more apparent that methods of doing work and "tricks of the trade" should occupy an important part of the book to make it at all satisfactory. I saw that my object should be not merely to furnish data whereby an inexperienced man might predict the cost of rock work with at least tolerable accuracy, but that it should be my aim also to indicate to the experienced manager how and where savings in the cost of production may be effected. Taking my own notes and records of cost as a basis, I have added so extensively to them by correspondence that the reader will find not a little on costs that has never appeared in print before.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rock Excavating and Blasting It is a well-known fact that schools of engineer ing teach the design of engineering works, but not their construction. A few strokes of the pen show how a tunnel is to be driven through a mountain, but there is nothing shown on the drawings or taught in school, that will point out how the work is to be accomplished. This part is left for the contracting engineer to work out for himself, and the young engineer in charge of the work, if he has had no previous experience, must pick it up as he goes along from the rock men in charge of the blasting.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Construction of Masonry Dams Many volumes have been written upon the design of masonry dams; the principal features and methods have been reduced to what may be called an accepted, standard practice. It is hoped that the present work will supply the details of construction and supervision which have not been adequately covered heretofore. For a number of years descriptions of particular dams have appeared in the engi neering periodicals, but little attention has been given in these articles to the general principles of construction involved. Within the limitations of this book it was not possible to cover the subject in all of its ramifications. Earth work, rock excavation, cement, pumping and many similar subjects have been passed over entirely either because adequate treatment was impossible in such a work as this, or because they are fully covered in other books. Other subjects, such as power, are touched upon in the most ele mentary manner and solely from the point of view of the man en gaged in dam construction. Thus the material upon source and dis tribution of power are mere suggestions, while the subjects of power required, cost of power, etc., are treated somewhat more fully. It is probably true that for one dam actually built, several are projected and more or less thoroughly examined. The inception and promotion of such projects and their examination by financiers, result in a number of engineers being called upon for estimates of cost. Such estimates must often be prepared within a limited time and for a limited expenditure. To facilitate the rapid and reasonably accu rate treatment of such estimates, a chapter has been added on this subject, and this, in fact, was one of the chief purposes of the book. It is hoped that the cost figures will prove a reliable and useful guide for estimates. Labor costs, as always, must be used with caution.
