Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book comprehensively elucidates the measures put in place to standardize the issue of fuel to the US Army. The author delves into how fuel allowance calculations were previously determined and the problems and inconsistencies that arose. Based on tests conducted in 1914 at three different military posts and a thorough analysis of temperature charts supplied by the Weather Bureau, the book sets out a new system for calculating fuel allowances. This system is recommended to be based on the size of the building, the heating apparatus installed, and the mean outside temperature. By considering these factors, the new system ensures a more equitable and efficient distribution of fuel resources and eliminates the issues that plagued the previous method. The study also includes a review of fuel costs and types used in various foreign cities, providing valuable insights into the broader context of fuel management.
