CONCRETE LININGS. 



No. 2, R. S., 14***, main canal, Boise project. United States Reclamation Service. 

 Rather rough, in places disintegrated by frost. Fairly clean but still some rock in bot- 

 tom. Other tests in same section gives values of n from 0.0129 to 0.0148. Coefficient 

 w=0.0130. 



No. 3, R. S., 8***, main canal, Boise project. United States Reclamation Service. 

 Rough troweled. Small deposit rocks and gravel in bottom. Coefficient n=0.0154. 



No. 4, R. S., 36***, Sulphur Creek wasteway, Sunnyside unit, United States Rec- 

 lamation Service. This covers one of four tests in same section, with discharges 

 from 45 to 247 second-feet. Corresponding values of n are the same, within 0.0002 

 for all discharges. Wood forms used; no retouching of surface. Circular section, 

 radius 4 feet. Coefficient n=0.0108. 



No. 5, R. S., 33***, Sulphur Creek wasteway. Similar to No. 4 above, but on 2° 

 curve. One of three tests with discharges from 52.5 to 247 second-feet. Correspond- 

 ing values of n same within 0.0004. Coefficient n=0.0140. 



No. 6, JBL-6*, main supply conduit for Los Angeles, Cal. Covered conduit. In 

 use foiur years, one curve in section tested. Where wetted, section was very smooth. 

 Apparently of 1 to 3 cement-mortar plaster on concrete. No deposit or growth. Co- 

 efficient n=0.0108. 



No. 7, JBL-5*. Description and reach tested same as No. 6 above. Coefficient 

 n=0.0111. 



No. 8, JBL-2*, tunnel 23, San Gabriel plant of Pacific Light & Power Co., Cali- 

 fornia. Covered conduit. In use eight years. No growth. Deposit conditions 

 indeterminate. Slight cur\'es near each portal. Slope determined by correcting 

 office notes of floor grade by depths of water. Coefficient ?i=0.0113. 



No. 9, VMC+, Dry Creek flume. Handy Canal, Loveland, Colo. In good condi- 

 tion. Lined in 1906 with cement mortar, trowel finish. Coefficient n=0.0115. 



No. 10, JBL-1*, tunnel 15, San Gabriel plant. Pacific Light & Power Co., Cali- 

 ornia. A tunnel similar to No. 8 above. Slight curve at upper portal. Sharp 

 angle 20 feet below lower portal. Deposit conditions indeterminate. Coefficient 

 w=0.0128. 



No. 15, R. S., 20***, Ridenbaugh Canal, Idaho. Description similar to Nos. 12-13 

 in text. One of three tests with discharges 50, 103, and 230 second-feet. Correspond- 

 ing values of n are 0.0132, 0.0130, and 0.0122.
