Moreover, the residual core of iron has undergone anotable alteration in its properties, the change being evidencedin particular by reduced strength as well as by brittlenessand shortness of fracture, the surface of which also oftenreveals a decided crystalHne structure. It is worthy of note that the iron increases in volumeconcurrently with the progress of the rust formation, acircumstance that may become a source of danger to thestructure, on account of the very considerable pressureaccompanying such expansion. Thus, for example, it hasbeen observed that blocks of hewn stone fitted in a defective 28 lEON-COEROSION AND ANTI-COEROSIVE PAINTS. manner with iron dowels and clamps, and set in mortar, havebeconre forced asunder owing to the cause in question, andrequired Fig. 11 (natural size).
