The Testing Of Steel For Wear By Abrasives, Thomas Evan Eagan

Professional Degree Theses

"The tests herein reported were conducted with the idea of finding a steel which would give improved wear as roll shells in the comminution of ores...Not only must the wear be considered, but also the physical properties. It is desirable to have a steel of such Tensile and impact values that no failure by breakage would occur until the shell was worn very thin. The ideal condition being to wear the shell down to zero thickness, but such cannot be accomplished"--Introduction, page 2.

The Lead And Zinc Deposits In The Sedimentary Rocks Of East Tennessee And Southwest Virginia, Joseph Hugh Reid

Professional Degree Theses

"In its geographic and geologic relations this area forms a part of the Appalachian province, which extends from the Atlantic Coastal plain on the East to the Mississippi lowlands on the West and from Central Alabama to Southern New York.

A Study Of The Iodine Content Of Missouri Vegetables And Soils, Charles Jackson Potter

Masters Theses

"Investigations have shown that the iodine content of vegetables, water, and soils has a direct relationship to the goiter incidence of a given region. A few countries, notably New Zealand and Switzerland have made a rather complete survey. In the United States, South Carolina has made the most progress in this direction.

At the present time there are no available records of vegetable and soil analysis for iodine in Missouri. Hunze determined the amount of iodine in waters in Missouri. The connection of his results with the author's results will be seen later.

The present investigation was carried out at …

The North Side Sewage Treatment Works Of The Chicago Sanitary District, Floyd Allen Gerard

Professional Degree Theses

"My aim in writing this thesis has been to give a clear and concise picture of the Plant, its construction, operating experiences, results and the need for sewage treatment. For this reason, I have incorporated much information, which, while not dealing directly with the subject in hand, is closely allied to it and forms a very necessary background. As the Sanitary District considers its actual operating results confidential, I have refrained from including them. Much useful information can be derived from a careful study of the photographs and drawings included"--page ii.

An Engineer's Report Of A Lead And Zinc Mining Property, Ernest Moran

Professional Degree Theses

"Gentlemen: Pursuant to your request, I have analyzed and classified the data relative to the Van Buren Mine of the Lucky Syndicate Mining and Smelting Company and beg to submit the following report. The lease is a lead and zinc mining property consisting of eighty (80) acres more or less..."--Letter to the Wright Mining & Royalty Co Miami, Oklahoma, dated December 9, 1929.

Data For Standard Curve Chord Steel Roof Trusses., William Hewitt Bush

Professional Degree Theses

"In the past the Engineering Department of the structural steel company, by which the writer is employed, has been troubled with having to make a large number of preliminary steel truss designs for the purpose of estimating weights for competitive bids on structural steel building contracts. In order to eliminate this expenditure of time, a study was made of the possibility of making a standard design for curved chord steel roof trusses that would give the desired information by observation"--Truss Design, page 5.

Longface And Longwall Mining Methods Being Tried In Oklahoma Coal Fields, Earl Hollinger Mcalpine

Professional Degree Theses

"Of a number of long wall and long face mining methods in use in Oklahoma mines at this time, I shall outline four in this paper. Two of these methods are in use in mines which are comparatively level. The first of these is in the Kali-Inla mine near Hartshorne. The second is in the Milby-Dow Coal Company mine at Dow. The Mullen Coal Company mine near McAlester and the Hailey-Ola Company mine near Lutie are steep pitching mines"--page 1.

Geology Of Mohave County, Arizona, Earl Ross Householder

Professional Degree Theses

"Diamond Creek canyon is located in the eastern part of Mohave County and opens into the Colorado River. Limestones and sandstones of Carboniferous age are abundently [sic] exposed therein"--page 6.

Some Compressed Air Tests At High Altitude, Thomas C. Robson

Professional Degree Theses

"These tests were made at one of the mines of the "Compania Minera de Potosi", situated in the Cerro Rico (Rich Hill) of Potosi, BOLIVIA, South America; to be used in a report of the General Mine Superintendent, to the mine owners, to show them, that to obtain better results in the compressed air plant, it was necessary to change the existing old compressors working underground"--Preface, page ii.

The West Side Sewage Treatment Works Of The Sanitary District Of Chicago, John Edwin Mccauley

Professional Degree Theses

"Herein following is a thesis on the West Side Sewage Treatment Works of the Sanitary District of Chicago. I have endeavored to cover a large field in one thesis, but think is giving the material I have, the fundamental points have been covered. The local need of sewage treatment is so involved with county, state, Federal, and even International issues that to write solely of local conditions would be to leave out the main part of the story. So, in writing, I have tried to dover enough of the subject to give the historical facts along with the construction side …

Oil And Gas Fields Of The Southern Gulf Coastal Plains Of Texas, Phillip Francis Martyn

Professional Degree Theses

"The purpose of this report is to furnish a general outline of the oil and gas fields of the Southern Gulf Coastal plain of Texas. To properly cover the subject, the report is divided into three major parts, the first part dealing with the present and past producing territory, the second part dealing with the factors influencing the producing territory and the third section relating to geology and its associated subjects covering the area as a whole"--Introduction, page 1.

A Fire Clay Cement Study, Willard E. Davis

Bachelors Theses

"The purpose of this investigation was to develop a satisfactory boiler setting cement from a semi-flint fire clay. This clay is now being mined and used to make refractory ware by the Wellsville Fire Brick Company, Wellsville, Missouri. It has been my intention of using only those materials which have been used by this company and following the same preparation of the clay, that is, using the machinery which is at present available in the plant"--Introduction, page 3.

Disintegration Of Ozark Plastic Fire Clay In The Drier, Elmer Francis Cirkal

Bachelors Theses

"During the procedure of testing Ozark Plastic Fire clay in 1928-29 a few of the test bars were unintentionally left in a laboratory drier and after some months it was found that these bars were decidedly disintegrated into a powder without any known special treatment...In order to properly investigate the cause of this phenomena it was decided to repeat the experiment under similar conditions so that no error could enter the investigation which would cause any deviation from the results previously obtained "--pages 1 -2.

The Effect Of Various Methods Of Grinding On The Physical Properties Of Unfired Dry Press Brick, Edwin Theodore Harvey

Bachelors Theses

"In the manufacture of dry press brick, the final grinding of the clay is usually done in a dry pan. This is especially true of fire brick made by the dry press method. It is logical to assume that different types of grinding machines will impart different characteristics to the ground clay mix, as regards the grain size variation and the shape of the grains, which in turn will have an effect on the properties of the brick. The purpose of this investigation was to determine what effect different types of grinding methods have on the physical properties of unfired …

The Transmission Of Pressure In The Dry Pressing Of Typical Building Brick And Fire Brick Mixes As Affected By The Degree Of Pressure, Physical Character Of Mix Ingredient, And The Moisture Content Of The Mix, Ferdinand Frederick Netzeband

Bachelors Theses

"In February, 1929, the Dry Press Committee of the National Brick Manufacturers Association, in cooperation with the department of Ceramics of the Missouri School of Mines and Metallurgy, began several investigations relating to dry press ware. This Committee suggested a great number of possible investigations, and are now systematically proceeding along these lines. This investigation has for its object: (1) The transmission of pressure in the dry pressing of typical building brick and fire brick mixes as affected by the degree of pressure; and (2) As affected by the moisture content of the mix. this thesis contains a description of …
