Note 78 — PART I SPECIFICATIONS FOR STREET ROADWAY PAVEMENTS (continued 2)

The utility and durability of hydraulic concrete sidewalks depends largely on the quality of materials and workmanship employed in the work. Too frequently, specifications for this work are not sufficiently full, or not prepared with the requisite care, or the work is not properly supervised or inspected while in progress. The aggregate importance and cost of this sidewalk work in our cities warrants more care and attention than it generally receives.
