412 bIk%XJSSION ON THE CONSTRUCTiON Ol? In so far as the finished surface of the runway is concerned, it might be mentioned that the specification required all finished surfaces to show nodeviationexceedinginch when testedwitha10-footstraight-edge and that the results obtained were well within the specification-generally the deviation wasless than inch. The people of Jordan have shown themselves quick and ready to learn all aspects of such work as was covered in the Amman contract and the experience so gained by local labour should prove of value for other large civil engineering schemeswhich are now being planned for Jordan...

DISCUSSION ON EXTENSIONS AT TAKORADI HARBOUR 443 Discussion Mr J. H. Jellett referred to the statement made on p. 428 that, in the timber-depot quays, no fixed fendering had been provided; apart from reference to the 12-inch-by-12-inchtimber coping beam, no other mention had been made of fendering. Was some form of floating dummy provided P How was the bituminous paint on the steelwork for the sawn timber sheds behaving ? Experience had shown that the behaviour of that type of paint could be very patchy and a record of how it had lasted in the conditions in Takoradi would be of interest...

Correspondence Mr G. E. Wild observed that, from comments made during the discussion on p. 205, it might have appeared to some that the compaction control exercised during the construction of the earthworks required an excessive number of staff and could, therefore, be criticised as an expensive luxury...

The Authors, in reply, thanked Mr Wild for his contribution ; the figures which he had given were a valuable addition to the Paper. Mr Wild had put forward the view that the amount of compaction control exercised should not be regarded as excessive, and hademphasized the importance of that aspect of the works. The Authors entirely agreed with that view, and would specify a similar intensity of control in future work of the same kind...
