Text Appearing Before Image:
e or two river boats. The dock is of the quay construction type and, with itsshed, has a width of 100 ft. The shed area on the upper levelis about 90 000 sq. ft., or, after due allowance for driveways,columns, slips, etc., ample space for the temporary storage intransit of 7 200 tons of freight; while the lower level with thefloor area of 30 000 sq. ft. affords space for some 2 400 tons.Therefore, a total of 9 600 tons of freight if necessary may betemporarily stored in transit. The double-decked section of the dock is equipped with twoadjustable slips on each level. Those on the lower level have amaximum drop of 10 ft. for a length of 55 ft., a gradient slightlyless than 20 per cent., or one up which a man can wheel a handtruck with a light load, or up which a stevedore and helper canwheel a full load. The maximum grade is readily mounted bya dock auto fully loaded. When the slip is dropped 7^ ft. or less, the grade is such(13^ per cent.) that one man can readily trundle a full load.
