Abstract:
In the Catskill aquedect, the dams and the numerous other structures built by the Board of Water Supply of the City of New York to date, 4,500,000 cu. yds. of concrete have been placed, using 6,500,000 bbls. of cut-and-cover aqueduct, and 50 miles of concrete-lined tunnels, steel forms have been used almost exclusively; for the 6 miles of mortar-lined and concrete-jacketed 9-ft. and 11-ft. steel pipes, wooden forms were preferred.
