After the grouthas partially set, the surplus extendingoutside the lower edge of the bed can __i_i_. on one another after the bed has beenleveled. This shaking down may occurbefore the bed has been grouted, inwhich case difficulties due to inaccuratework will ultimately result. 1 -N „ I IJ \ ^^3 i i >H| i I ^ \ r n ; \ housing I ; ,-% i Y~/tere>i av£n tiiicin if mate. ?.— ?—•--. r- f«iu fitv/ir/et CONCRrrC FOOTING _y -side eiEVAr/e/i iojV ,. tri« J Tf-- ?. lift; .< *VNMIf*# 14 i ? ?, ? t — 1—\— I P - T ; \z Y • m- Pl /?/v. -/ .

While thismethod of using wedges and groutingmay, as suggested above, be satisfactoryfor the conditions specified above, it isnot recommended for important work,because it is, all things considered, un-economical. A Grout in Which Leveling Wedges orBlocks May be Set consists of one partsharp sand and one part cement byvolume, first sifted and thoroughly mix-ed and then made to the consistency ofthick cream by adding water. Proportions for Iron Wedges may bethose specified in Fig. 5 which haveproven satisfactory in practice.
