X Advertisements Road Reinforcement THE whole durability of a road lies in its foundation, the function of which is to spread the wheel-load over an area that will preclude all possibility of a depression of the ground as the load passes over. Con- crete roads reinforced with Johnson s Steel Wire Lattice have been proved to provide the best highways for all modern traffic conditions. They are the ideal roads for heavy, continuous traffic ; providing a foundation of a lasting resiliency to ensure hard, even wear. They are economical in cost, upkeep, and material, requiring only 6 to 8 inches of concrete against 12 to 14 inches of massed concrete for ordinary roads. Reinforced Concrete Road Foundations are more economical and more satisfactory than plain concrete. Johnson’s Steel Wire Lattice Road Reinforcement effects considerable economies in first costs for labour and materials. Johnson’s Steel Wire Lattice is delivered in the form of a complete fabric, ready for laying, in handy rolls of varying lengths and meshes.
