Abstract
This paper describes some of the tests made for the City of Springfield, Mass., on the Cobble Mountain Hydraulic-Fill Dam. The derivation is given of almost all the formulas used in the paper. In addition to new formulas and data pertaining to tests, the paper contains a consolidation study of core materials and a seepage formula for hydraulic-fill dams. It also gives the results of the gradation tests made at Cobble Mountain Laboratory of the core materials of several other hydraulic-fill dams.Keywords
