APPROML State Highway Commission Gets Federal Consent to Construc- tion Here, But Decision _ Is Pending (Special to The Tribune.) CHEYENNE, May 5.—The approval of the granting of federal aid for the construction of an experimental section of precast slab construction on the Casper-Salt Creek road has been secured by the state highway department from the bureau of public roads. Supt. D. S. McCalman of the state highway depart- ment returned to this city last night from Chicago, where he conferred with Thomas H. MeDonald, chief of the bureau of public roads, and secured Mr. McDonald's approval of the above pian. As the paving of .the Casper-Salt Creek road is one of the largest, if not the largest road paving project pro. posed in the west, and the local condi tions affecting this construction are probably the most unfavorable of those affecting the usual road construction the slab method of construction for this improvement has been carefully studjed by state and federal highway officials. This plan provides for the casting of reinforced concrete slabs, nine feet square, at a central mixing and casting plant. After the proper curing these slabs are to he transported by trucks to the road and put in place. As the slabs are six inches thick and are re- inforced with steel, they will be of an enormous Wweight and cranes, both in the casting yard and on the road will be necessary to handle them, without dam- age. If this method is finally decided upon by highway officials, a large casting and mixing plant will be erected in Casper, which is the only point on the Salt Creek road where water, sand, gravel, and railroad facilities are available. Th« erection and operation of this plant will constitute a no small industry in itself. Under this method, after the prepara tion of a suitable sub-grade, the large slabs are placed on a sand cushion, two inches thick, and one of the advantages under this plan will be that the neces- sary trucks for this work will travel over a paved road at all times, as the slabs will be put in place from the “Casper end” of tne project. ? No definite decision has yet been made as to the probable action to be taken on the matter of constructing an experimental section of this type, ees MELTING SNOW IS .DAMAGING TO BASEMENTS (Special to The Tribune.)
