Theconcrete bea rested upon 6* x 8-in., plates supported by beam. generally rested directly upon the plates without em-bedment in plaster of paris and no crushing was observed due toqnequal bearings. The bottom of the beam was naturally smooth sono trouble Aould be expected in this direction. In one case when the beam was very much out of -plumb it was shimmed up with buildingin paper and ^another the beam was raised and set plumb in plaster ofparis. There were other instance
