Excerpt from Lessons and General Outline, With Suggested Exercises for a Manual Training Course in Concrete: Prepared for the Use of Instructors in Planning and Conducting Elementary Work in Concrete
Concrete is so extensively used as a material of construction as to make the need for a short general course in elementary and high schools imperative. This has warranted the preparation of a series of elementary lessons and exercises which may be used to stimulate the interest and ingenuity of the younger students, thus widening, at a formative period, their knowledge of cement and the materials used in concrete construction.
The scope of this course is necessarily limited by the time available for presenting such a subject. The Association of American Portland Cement Manufacturers has prepared, from time to time, various bulletins treating of the application of concrete in countless ways, and the instructor may readily enlarge or vary the course by using these bulletins as text-books or guides in the preparation of more extended lectures or problems.
For reference purposes the name, number, and general scope of the bulletins are given below:
Concrete Surface Finish.
Reinforced Concrete Chimneys.
Cement Stucco.
Concrete Tanks.
Concrete in the Country.
Factories and Warehouses of Concrete.
The Concrete House and Its Construction.
Concrete Highways.
Facts Everyone Should Know About Concrete Roads.
Standard Methods of Testing and Specifications for Cement.
Lessons, General Outline, and Suggested Exercises for a Manual Training Course in Concrete.
Concreting in Winter.
Short-span Concrete Bridges.
Single Track Streets and Dished Alleys.
A Concrete Country Road. Maintenance of Concrete Roads and Streets.
Standard Recommended Practice in Concrete Road Construction.
Concrete School Houses.
Concrete Silos.
Concrete Blocks.
Concrete Drain Tile.
Concrete Pipe.
The files of the leading technical papers are replete with articles dealing with the use of cement and concrete for specific purposes. The Proceedings of the American Concrete Institute (Philadelphia) also contain much valuable information. Instructors and students may very readily increase their working knowledge of any phase of concrete construction by consulting these papers and proceedings.
